Frequently Asked Questions

Find Quick Answers

What is Base64 encoding?

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-64 representation. It's commonly used to encode data that needs to be stored or transferred over media designed to deal with textual data.

What types of Base64 formats does this tool support?

This tool supports standard Base64 encoding as defined in RFC 4648, including the common Base64 alphabet with '+' and '/' characters. It handles padding with '=' characters and automatically removes whitespace from the input.

Can I upload files with this tool?

Yes, you can upload .txt files containing Base64 encoded data. The tool will read the file content and decode it to a string. Only text files are supported for security reasons.

What happens if I enter invalid Base64 data?

The tool will display a clear error message indicating that the input contains invalid Base64 characters. It will highlight the problematic input field and provide guidance on how to fix it.

Is there a limit to the amount of data I can convert?

The tool processes data entirely client-side in your browser, so it's limited by your device's memory and performance. For very large files (over 10MB), performance may degrade, but typical Base64 strings convert instantly.
