Image to Base64

Generate a data URI from a local image.

Choose an image to create a data URI and Base64 value for HTML, CSS, JSON, or another text format.

About Image to Base64

Represent an image as text for a data URI or an encoded payload. This is useful for small embedded assets, but usually not for large pictures.

Steps, and limitations

How to use it

  1. Select a supported image file.
  2. Generate its Base64 representation.
  3. Copy the raw encoding or the data URI format required by the receiving app.

Things to know

  • Base64 adds size compared with the source bytes. Embedding large images can make documents or stylesheets unwieldy.
  • A data URI can be decoded by anyone who has it; it is not a privacy control.
