Which ASCII Tools and Converters Are Available on ASCII.co.uk?

ASCII.co.uk groups its text tools into three sections on the homepage: ASCII Tools (Generate ASCII Art, ASCII Code Converter, ASCII Table, ASCII Symbols, URL Encoding), ASCII Art Galleries (user-created, one-line, and animated art, plus an ASCII Text Generator), and Tools / Other Sites (ASCII News, Web Browser Info, RGB Colours, JSON Tools). If you need to turn text into banner-style art, look up a character code, or encode a URL, the relevant tool is one click from the landing page.

ASCII Art and Text Generation Tools

These tools produce or display text-based graphics rather than converting data formats.

Generate ASCII Art

Takes your input text and renders it as large lettering built from ASCII characters. The homepage itself shows this style of output in its "ASCII" banner. Use it when you need a heading for a plain-text README, a terminal banner, or a comment block.

ASCII Text Generator

Listed under the ASCII Art Galleries section. It generates text-based output in the same family as the art galleries, so expect it to be the entry point for producing styled text rather than looking up character codes.

Art Galleries

The galleries are browsing destinations, not converters: ASCII Art Gallery, User Created ASCII Art, One Line ASCII Art, and Animated ASCII Art. Use these when you want existing art to copy rather than generate your own.

Code, Table, and Symbol Reference Tools

ASCII Code Converter

Converts between characters and their ASCII numeric codes. This is the tool for questions like "what number is the letter A?" or "which character is code 65?" — useful when debugging encoding issues or writing character constants in code.

ASCII Table

A reference listing of ASCII characters and their values. Use it when you need to scan the full range rather than convert a single character.

ASCII Symbols

A reference for ASCII symbols specifically. Reach for this when you need a particular symbol's representation, for example when building separators or decorative lines in plain text.

Encoding and Utility Tools

URL Encoding

Encodes text so it can be safely placed in a URL — for example, converting spaces and reserved characters into percent-encoded form. Use it when building query strings or links by hand.

Tools / Other Sites

The site also links out to ASCII News, Web Browser Info, RGB Colours, and JSON Tools. These sit outside the core ASCII toolset; the RGB and JSON tools are general developer utilities rather than ASCII-specific ones.

Quick Reference

How to Reach the Tools

All of the tools above are linked directly from the ASCII.co.uk homepage, organized under the "ASCII Art Galleries," "ASCII Tools," and "Tools / Other Sites" headings. There is no separate tools subdomain to remember — start at the homepage and follow the matching heading. The site also links a "What Is ASCII?" page under Site Info if you need background before using the converters.

The site's own description frames it as "the home of all things textual," containing ASCII art, an ASCII table, and "generally anything plain text" — so the toolset is deliberately narrow and text-focused rather than a general-purpose converter suite.
