How to Use the Hex to Text Converter

Single Mode

  1. Select your conversion direction: Text to Hex or Hex to Text
  2. Enter or paste your input in the left text area
  3. For hex input, spaces and 0x prefixes are automatically handled
  4. Toggle uppercase/lowercase for hex output (Text to Hex mode only)
  5. Click the "Copy" button to copy the result to your clipboard

Batch Mode (New!)

  1. Switch to "Batch" mode using the mode toggle
  2. Upload a TXT or CSV file, or enter multiple inputs (one per line)
  3. Click "Process Batch" to convert all items at once
  4. View results in a detailed table with success/error indicators
  5. Download results as TXT (plain output) or CSV (with input/output columns)

Batch mode is perfect for converting hundreds of hex values or text strings at once. Ideal for data analysis, log processing, and bulk conversions.

Common Use Cases

  • Analyzing memory dumps and hex editors
  • Debugging network protocols and packet data
  • Color code conversions (hex to RGB)
  • Cryptography and hash inspection
  • Low-level programming and hardware interfacing
  • File format analysis and reverse engineering

Understanding Hexadecimal Encoding

Hexadecimal (hex) is a base-16 number system using digits 0-9 and letters A-F. It's commonly used in computing because it's more compact than binary—each hex digit represents 4 bits (half a byte). Two hex digits represent one byte, which corresponds to one character in ASCII encoding. For example, the letter "H" has an ASCII value of 72 (decimal), which is 48 in hexadecimal.

Supported Hex Formats

  • Space-separated: 48 65 6C 6C 6F
  • Continuous: 48656C6C6F
  • With 0x prefix: 0x48 0x65 0x6C 0x6C 0x6F (prefix is ignored)
  • Mixed case: Both uppercase (48656C) and lowercase (48656c) are accepted

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I paste hex with 0x prefixes?

Yes, the converter automatically strips 0x prefixes and other non-hex characters, so you can paste data directly from code or hex editors.

What if my hex string has an odd length?

Hex strings must have an even number of digits (each pair represents one byte). If you enter an odd-length string, you'll receive an error message.

Does this work with Unicode characters?

Yes, the converter supports UTF-8 encoding, which handles Unicode characters properly. Each Unicode character may be represented by multiple hex bytes.
