Frequently asked questions

How do I use the Base64 result in HTML or CSS?

Paste it as the image source, for example <img src='data:image/png;base64,…'>, or in CSS as background-image: url('data:image/png;base64,…').

Is PNG transparency preserved?

Yes. PNG, JPG and WebP images are encoded in their own format, so a transparent PNG stays transparent. Other formats such as GIF or BMP are encoded as PNG.

Why is the Base64 text larger than the image file?

Base64 represents binary data as text and is about one third larger than the original bytes, so it suits small images such as icons and logos best.

Is my image uploaded?

No. The image is read and encoded in your browser and never leaves your device.
