Convert Images to Text-Images

I was not sure how to name the article appropriately. You can convert any image on your computer into a text image at text-image.com. The result looks great, just take a look at the sample image that I reduced in size. The normal size looks much clearer and brighter.

Update: Text Image is still available as a service on the Internet. When you are on the service’s homepage, you can select the convert option at the top to open the images to text conversion options. Here you select the image file that you want to use, as well as the characters, font size, color options or contrast options.

Customizations are nice, allowing you to select the desired image size (up to a maximum of 500 characters in width, the background, or if you want extra contrast for the image.

The service offers three conversions options: First conversion to HTML, then to ASCII, and then a Matrix conversion. You may want to run text conversions first to see how the resulting text images look like, before you decide which design choice to use for a particular image.

The help page may also aid you if you run into configuration issues. It is also interesting to note that the developer has created mobile apps both for the Android and Apple iOS mobile operation system, which both unfortunately cost some money to download and install.

One thing that you may be interested in is the samples page which highlights some of the image to ascii art conversions that the online converter is capable of. The news section on the website lists a Windows application, but it can’t be found on the website anymore, which may mean that it has been pulled from the website again by its developer.
