What is Base64?
Base64 is a binary-to-text encoding system that uses a set of 64 distinct ASCII characters to transfer binary data into a text-based format. It is often used to encode binary data, such as images or files.
What are ZIP files?
ZIP files are archives that store multiple files. They use lossless compression to reduce the file size of the files contained inside the ZIP. Thus, the ZIP file functions as a folder that groups files and uses compression to make it easier to store, send, and share their content.
What is Base64 Encoding?
Encoding, in general, refers to the process of converting data from one format to another.
Base64 encoding is achieved by representing binary data with a set of 64 different ASCII characters. This encoding is particularly useful when data needs to be exchanged between systems that do not natively support binary data.
What is an ZIP to Base64 Converter?
The ZIP to Base64 Converter is a program that converts .zip files into their Base64 encoded text equivalent. This conversion enables ZIP files to be encoded using the Base64 algorithm.
How do I use the Online ZIP to Base64 Encoder?
- First, upload your file, with .zip extension.
- No need to press a button, just wait until the encoding is complete. For large files this may take longer.
- The Base64 result will automatically appear in the Output field.
- If you want, you can copy the result using the Copy button.
Is it secure to use your ZIP to Base64 Converter?
Absolutely. Our program operates entirely on the client side, which means all the conversion processes occur within your browser. No data is sent to our servers, ensuring that your information remains under your control and confidential throughout the conversion process.
Base64 Characters
Uppercase letters (A-Z), lowercase letters (a-z), digits (0-9), and two additional characters, typically “+” and “/”, comprise the set of 64 ASCII characters used in Base64 encoding. When the length of the binary data is not a multiple of three bytes, the “=” character is also used for padding.
