Is the ASCII art generator free?

Yes, it is completely free with no limits. All processing runs locally in your browser.

How does image-to-ASCII conversion work?

Each pixel is converted to grayscale, then mapped to an ASCII character based on brightness. Darker pixels use denser characters like @ and #, while lighter pixels use dots or spaces.

Can I adjust the output width?

Yes. Use the width slider to set the number of characters per line, from 40 to 120.

Are my images uploaded to a server?

No. All conversion happens locally in your browser using the Canvas API. Your images never leave your device.
