How to use this table

Find the row closest to your original file size and read across to the base64 encoded size. For a value between two rows, the real figure sits between them — or enter your exact numbers in the Base64 Size Calculator for a precise answer.

Need a value that is not in the table? — the Base64 Size Calculator does it instantly, for free, with the formula and a worked example built in.
