Base64 encoding is widely used by developers to safely transmit binary data, including PDFs, as plain text. However, to actually view or share that document, you need to decode it back into its original PDF format. Our Base64 to PDF Converter makes this process simple, secure, and instant—right in your browser.
Our Base64 to PDF tool is built with simplicity and efficiency in mind. Here’s why developers and non-tech users love it:

A Base64 string for a PDF is a text representation of the PDF's binary data. Since PDFs are originally binary files (made of 1s and 0s), they can't be safely transferred or embedded in text-based systems like HTML, JSON, or email. Base64 encoding converts this binary data into a long, readable string of characters, making it easy to store or transmit the PDF file in a text format. Our tool decodes this string back into a usable PDF file.
You can easily convert a PDF to a Base64 string using our dedicated tool for that purpose. Just head over to our PDF to Base64 Converter, upload your PDF file, and the tool will instantly provide you with the Base64-encoded text. This is useful for embedding a PDF directly into web pages or for secure data transfer.
