#FAQ
How does image-to-ASCII conversion work? ▾
The tool draws the image on a small Canvas, reads each pixel brightness value, and maps it to an ASCII character from a density ramp (e.g., @ for dark, . for light). The result is a block of text that visually resembles the original image.
Can I control the output size? ▾
Yes. You can adjust the output width in characters. A wider output produces more detail but takes up more space. The height is calculated automatically to preserve the aspect ratio.
