Frequently Asked Questions

What is Base64 encoding?

Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format. It is widely used in email (MIME) and storing complex data in XML or JSON.

Is Base64 a form of encryption?

No, Base64 is an encoding format, not encryption. It is used to transform data into a format that can be safely transmitted, but it does not provide security against unauthorized access.

Can I use this for data URIs?

Yes, our tool is perfect for creating the Base64 strings needed for data URIs in CSS or HTML, making it easier to embed small assets directly into your code.
