This browser-based utility converts Unicode text to base-8 octal data. Anything that you paste or enter in the text area on the left automatically gets printed as octal on the right. It supports the most popular Unicode encodings (such as UTF-8, UTF-16, UTF-32, UCS-2, and UCS-4) and it works with emoji characters. You can also customize the octal output format by enabling octal padding and spacing. Created by encoding gurus from team Browserling.

This utility converts your Unicode characters, symbols, and emojis to the octal base representation. The octal numeral system uses a range of just eight digits (0 to 7) and depending on the chosen encoding, each Unicode character is represented by a combination of one to twelve octal digits. For UTF8 encoding, it's three, six, nine, or twelve digits (corresponding to one, two, three, and four-byte UTF8). For UTF16LE, UTF16BE, UCS2LE, and UCS2BE encodings, it's six or twelve digits (corresponding to two and four-byte UTF16 and UCS2). For UTF32LE, UTF32BE, UCS4LE, and UCS4BE, it's twelve digits (corresponding to four-byte UTF32 and UCS4). If the number consists of less than three digits, you can add zeros in front of it by enabling the padding option. You can also separate the individual bytes by putting a space after each octet by enabling the spacing option. UTF16, UCS2, UTF32, and UCS4 output formats also support an optional Byte Order Mark. For UTF16LE, UCS2LE and UTF16BE, UCS2BE, the BOM is 177776 and 177377. For UTF32LE, UCS4LE and UTF32BE, UCS4BE, the BOM is 377376000000 and 000000376377.

In this example, we convert Unicode emojis of various parts of the Earth globe together with their brief descriptions into octal encoding. We first split the input Unicode into code points, then convert them to UTF8 octets, then separate the individual octets by spaces, and then pad bytes whose length is less than three digits with zeros.
This example combines a simple text phrase "DREAM BIG" with various Unicode combining characters. These combining marks render above, below and inside the base characters. Such corrupted text is called Zalgo text. We convert this glitchy text to the UTF16 Little Endian encoding in the octal base, expand the length of the octets to three digits, and join them all together. We also append the UTF16LE BOM at the beginning of the output.
In this example, we convert a Unicode art drawing of an owl into base 8 (octal) and we set the output to be encoded as UTF-32 Big Endian data. We separate octal bytes with a space character and disable the padding option so that the length of the bytes has a variable amount of digits. Hoooo!

We're Browserling — a friendly and fun cross-browser testing company powered by alien technology. At Browserling we love to make people's lives easier, so we created this collection of online Unicode tools. Our tools are focused on gettings things done and they have the simplest possible user interface. As soon as you load your Unicode data in the input of any of our tools, you'll instantly get the result in the output. Behind the scenes, our tools are actually powered by our web developer tools that we created over the last couple of years. Check them out!
