How to use Convert Unicode to Code Points
- 1. Paste the text to look up. Paste the Unicode text whose code points you want to see. Every character, including combined emoji and accented letters, is read individually before its numeric position is looked up.
- 2. Choose a Format and Separator. Choose a Format of U+XXXX for the standard Unicode notation, Decimal for a plain base-10 number, or Hex for a bare hexadecimal value, and set Separator to the divider placed between entries.
- 3. Copy the code points. Copy the list of code points and use it to reference a specific character in the Unicode standard, a font's glyph table, or a bug report about a rendering issue.
When to use Convert Unicode to Code Points
Convert Unicode to Code Points looks up the exact numeric position each character holds in the Unicode standard. It is the step between seeing a character on screen and knowing which entry in the Unicode Character Database it corresponds to.
- Filing a font rendering bug. A character shows as a tofu box or the wrong glyph in your app, and the bug report needs the precise U+XXXX code point rather than a description like the weird square symbol.
- Cross-referencing the Unicode Character Database. You want to look up a symbol's official name, block, or category on the Unicode Consortium's site, and the lookup starts with knowing its exact code point value.
- Writing a regular expression range. A regex needs to match a specific Unicode block, such as emoji or Cyrillic letters, and building the range correctly requires knowing the decimal or hex code points at each boundary.
- Debugging mixed-encoding text. A string looks correct on screen but behaves oddly in code, and inspecting its code points reveals a stray zero-width character or unexpected combining mark hiding inside it.

About the Convert Unicode to Code Points tool
Convert Unicode to Code Points runs as plain JavaScript in your browser tab, with no server behind it. Quickly find code positions of all Unicode values. Whatever you put in stays on your device from start to finish.
The tool is part of EditSafely's Unicode Tools section, 98 single-purpose utilities built around the same idea: open the page, get the result, keep your data to yourself.
You can shape the output with 2 settings, including Format and Separator, and the result refreshes the moment you change one. A worked example further down the page shows exactly what the tool produces for a real input.
That local-first design has practical benefits beyond privacy. The tool keeps working on a flaky connection once the page has loaded, results are instant because nothing round-trips to a server, and it is safe to use with confidential material.
