Unicode Converter

Unicode code point and escape converter

Mojibake, zero-width spaces and emoji break search, slugs and PHP string lengths. This converter shows each character as U+XXXX, JavaScript \u escapes and HTML entities.

Paste raw text to inspect hidden characters, or paste escapes to see the real glyphs. UTF-16 surrogate pairs are expanded so a single emoji does not look like two broken units.

Normalize with NFC in application code before you compare German umlauts that might be composed or decomposed.
