A binary-to-text encoding is encoding of data in plain text. More precisely, it is an encoding of binary data in a sequence of printable characters . These encodings are necessary for transmission of data when the communication channel does not allow binary data (such as email or NNTP ) or is not 8-bit clean .
This category lists various binary-to-text encoding formats and standards. Pages in category "Binary-to-text encoding formats" The following 19 pages are in this category, out of 19 total.
As with all binary-to-text encoding schemes, Base64 is designed to carry data stored in binary formats across channels that only reliably support text content. Base64 is particularly prevalent on the World Wide Web [ 1 ] where one of its uses is the ability to embed image files or other binary assets inside textual assets such as HTML and CSS ...
This is a list of some binary codes that are (or have been) used to represent text as a sequence of binary digits "0" and "1". Fixed-width binary codes use a set number of bits to represent each character in the text, while in variable-width binary codes, the number of bits may vary from character to character.
Ascii85, also called Base85, is a form of binary-to-text encoding developed by Paul E. Rutter for the btoa utility. By using five ASCII characters to represent four bytes of binary data (making the encoded size 1 ⁄ 4 larger than the original, assuming eight bits per ASCII character), it is more efficient than uuencode or Base64, which use four characters to represent three bytes of data (1 ...
^ The current default format is binary. ^ The "classic" format is plain text, and an XML format is also supported. ^ Theoretically possible due to abstraction, but no implementation is included. ^ The primary format is binary, but text and JSON formats are available. [8] [9]

Base36 is a binary-to-text encoding scheme that represents binary data in an ASCII string format by translating it into a radix-36 representation.The choice of 36 is convenient in that the digits can be represented using the Arabic numerals 0–9 and the Latin letters A–Z [1] (the ISO basic Latin alphabet).
