About this tool

Convert text to hexadecimal bytes and hex back to text. Text is encoded as UTF-8, so multi-byte characters appear as several bytes.

Plain hex, space-, comma- or colon-separated bytes, and 0x or \x prefixes are all accepted.

The bytes are not valid UTF-8. The replacement character marks bytes that could not be decoded.

UTF-8 encodes most Hangul syllables with three bytes, for example 한 is ED 95 9C.
