Text to Base64 Converter

The Text to Base64 converter transforms plain text into Base64-encoded format. This tool takes any text input and encodes it into a Base64 string that can be safely transmitted across systems that may not handle all text characters correctly.

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in a printable ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-64 representation. This encoding is particularly useful when binary data needs to be stored or transmitted over media that are designed to handle text data, such as email or HTML files.

Common Uses:

• Encoding text for inclusion in HTML or XML documents
• Preparing data for MIME encoding in email
• Embedding text in URL parameters
• Creating data URIs for web applications
• Encoding authentication credentials in HTTP Basic Auth
• Storing text in systems that only support ASCII characters
• Transmitting text that contains special characters
• Preparing text data for cryptographic operations
