Text to Binary

Convert letters, Hindi text and emoji to eight-bit binary groups. Copy the UTF-8 bytes for programming examples, byte inspection or encoding exercises.

Inspect the bytes behind text

Paste a short message and convert it. The letter A becomes 01000001, which is decimal byte 65.

Count bytes rather than letters

ASCII letters need one UTF-8 byte each. Emoji and many other characters require multiple bytes, so group count can exceed character count.

Keep padding when copying

Leading zeroes preserve byte boundaries. Removing them makes the output harder to decode as an eight-bit stream.

Use a reversible representation

Pass the complete groups to Binary to Text to recover the message. This representation neither compresses nor encrypts its contents.

Text to Binary FAQs

It encodes a text string; it does not compile instructions for a processor.
Uppercase A produces one byte: 01000001. Lowercase a has a different value, 01100001.
