Frequently Asked Questions
What hex input formats are supported? +
The tool accepts three formats: space-separated pairs (48 65 6C), continuous strings (48656C), and 0x-prefixed values (0x48 0x65 0x6C). It auto-detects which format you are using.
How does auto-detection work? +
If the input contains "0x", it is treated as 0x-prefixed. If it contains spaces, it is split on spaces. Otherwise it is treated as a continuous hex string and split into pairs of two characters.
What happens with invalid hex characters? +
The tool flags invalid values and shows an error message indicating which part of the input could not be parsed. Valid hex digits are 0-9 and A-F (case-insensitive).
Can I convert text to hex instead? +
Use our separate Text to Hex tool for encoding text into hexadecimal. It supports multiple output formats including spaced, continuous, and 0x-prefixed.
