What Is Unicode Converter?

The Unicode Converter takes text into escape codes and back again. From any string it emits U+hex, decimal, HTML, CSS, JavaScript, percent-encoded and raw UTF-8 byte forms, each in its own copyable field, and it decodes strings that mix all those formats at once. The character inspector answers the real question behind most searches for this tool: click any glyph to see its code point and bytes, and learn whether it is a zero-width joiner, a right-to-left mark or a combining accent corrupting your data.

Who Uses the Unicode Converter?

Localization, frontend and data-cleaning developers use it to write safe escapes and to expose invisible or RTL characters hiding in pasted content.

How to Use the Unicode Converter

  1. Type or paste text to fill every escape format, then copy the one you need.
  2. Switch to the escapes-to-text direction and paste a mixed string to decode it.
  3. Click any character chip in the inspector to read its code point, UTF-8 bytes, ASCII status and block note.

Why Choose Our Unicode Converter?

  • Ten escape formats side by side, each with its own copy button
