How the browser process works

Encode any image into a Base64 data URI ready to paste into CSS or HTML. The page sends the selected file and settings to its image-to-base64 browser engine, creates a new output and downloads it without overwriting the source.

Privacy, quality checks and limitations

  • Keep the original file until the downloaded output has been opened and checked.
  • Verify page count, orientation, dimensions, text legibility, audio/video duration and metadata relevant to your use.
  • Browser-local processing reduces routine upload exposure, but your device, browser extensions and download location still matter.
  • A converted preview is not proof of legal authenticity, archival compliance, accessibility or digital-signature validity.
