Frequently asked questions

Are my images uploaded anywhere?

No. Images are processed in your browser using the Canvas API and never leave your device.

What formats does Image to Base64 support?

All common web image formats — JPG, PNG and WebP — and SVG where relevant.

Is there a file-size limit?

There's no hard cap, but very large images may use a lot of memory. Try compressing first if needed.
