❓ What is Quoted-Printable encoding?

Quoted-Printable is a text encoding method defined for email and MIME formats, where non-ASCII or special characters are represented using an equals sign followed by two hexadecimal digits. It keeps mostly readable text intact while safely encoding special characters for transport.

πŸ” How do I use this Quoted-Printable tool?

Paste your plain text or Quoted-Printable encoded string into the tool’s input area, choose whether to encode or decode, select a character encoding type, and then click the relevant action button to process your text.

🧱 What are the step-by-step instructions?

  1. Paste the text you want to convert into the input box.
  2. Select the mode: Encode (plain β†’ Quoted-Printable) or Decode (Quoted-Printable β†’ plain).
  3. Choose the desired character set (e.g., UTF-8, ASCII, ISO-8859-1).
  4. Click the β€œEncode” or β€œDecode” button to process your text.
  5. Copy the result or download it for use in email headers, APIs, or other tools.

⚑ Why use the Quoted-Printable Encode & Decode tool?

Quoted-Printable encoding is especially useful for email systems that must safely transmit special characters, international text, and extended ASCII content while keeping the text human-readable. This tool simplifies that process without requiring any software installation.

  • Instant conversion: Encode or decode text in seconds.
  • Safe email formatting: Ensures special characters are preserved in MIME email bodies.
  • Browser-based: No data uploads or external storage of your content.

πŸ’‘ Tips for best results

To get accurate conversions:

  • Use UTF-8 for multi-language text to preserve characters properly.
  • Quoted-Printable is ideal for text formats like email bodies that must remain mostly readable.
  • If decoding mail content, ensure the input contains correct Quoted-Printable sequences (like `=3D` for `=`).
