Text to Hex
Convert text to hexadecimal code online and inspect UTF-8 byte values instantly.
Concept
What is text to hex conversion?
Text to hex conversion turns text into hexadecimal byte values written with 0-9 and A-F. This tool shows UTF-8 bytes for the input text.
Hex represents 4 bits per character, so one 8-bit byte becomes two hex digits. For example, A becomes 41 and a space becomes 20.
Text to hex, hex converter, and hex code conversion are common when checking logs, API docs, byte dumps, and encoding examples.
Where is it useful?
Use it to inspect string bytes, explain logs, compare network payloads, or learn how text appears as hexadecimal data.
How should I read it?
Two hex digits usually represent one byte. Choose delimiters, 0x prefixes, and case options for the target format.
What should I watch for?
Unicode text can produce multiple bytes. Hex color codes and text byte hex values are different contexts.
Use Hex to Text to decode the value again, or Text to Binary when you want to compare the same text as binary.

Frequently asked questions
How is text converted to Hex?
The input text is converted to UTF-8 bytes, and each byte is displayed as a two-digit hexadecimal value.
Can I choose delimiters and 0x prefixes?
Yes. You can switch the output between spaces, no delimiter, colons, and 0x-prefixed values.
What does the byte order option change?
Choosing little-endian reverses the generated byte array. Use it when comparing against a protocol or dump format.
