Pix2HTML Convert1.03.718

Needless to say that an abundance of pictures can be found all over the web. However, these don’t necessarily have to be under a file format you’re familiar with, and can also be embedded as HTML. In case you need pictures under this specific type for your projects, Pix2HTML Convert can help you easily perform the conversion.

Visual design, and file support

All the application has to offer can be found in a pretty compact main window, with different fields for all conversion parameters. Although there’s no preview area for better support, requirement fields mostly speak for themselves, and in this simplicity, individuals of all levels of experience can quickly get accommodated.The application supports batch processing. However, you need to select multiple files using the browse dialog. On the one hand, this is because drag and drop is not supported, and it would have also been useful to be able to load the content of an entire folder, without having to manually pick images.Supported formats let you work with JPG, JPEG, BMP, ICO, EMF, and WMF. As for output, HTML, and HTM are your only options. A custom folder also needs to be selected for the output. Unfortunately, you’re only able to export every picture as an individual HTML file, with no possibility to bundle them all in a gallery, or at least to generate an index file for browsing through all converted files in your web browser.

Choose characters, and style options

More parameters need to be configured for a proper conversion. This is mostly because pictures are not just converted to plain HTML, but also turned into ASCII art, according to your configurations.A page title can be set, but you can use the filename for more diversity. The custom text field doesn’t necessarily need to contain a comprehensible phrase, because characters in that field are used to build the resulting image.As such, a key ingredient is imagination, and you might end up performing several conversion operations until you decide which characters best suit the target image. Don’t limit yourself to letters and numbers, because different styles can be obtained by combining symbols, as well.

A few last words

All things considered, we come to the conclusion that Pix2HTML Convert is not your average picture to HTML converter. Sadly, there’s no option to disable ASCII conversion, but customization options can be used to your advantage, in order to turn every picture into a cool visual element using numbers, letters, and symbols.
