Convert an image to dots online

Image to Dots transforms a photo or graphic into a pattern of evenly spaced dots. Upload a picture and the converter samples its colors and brightness, then uses those values to draw a dot-based version of the original. Use the options to change the dot size, spacing, shape, detail level, colors and background until the result looks right.

How does the Image to Dots converter work?

Your image is processed directly in your browser using the HTML canvas, so you do not need to install software or upload your picture to a server. The PNG download preserves the visual dot artwork, while the text version uses Unicode characters to create a lightweight dot-art pattern that you can copy and paste into compatible apps, documents or messages.

Tips for the best result

  • Use a clear, well-lit image with good contrast.
  • Increase the detail setting for smaller features; reduce it for a bolder, simpler pattern.
  • Try a transparent background when you want to place the dot image over another design.
  • Text dot art is an approximation and may look different depending on the font and app where you paste it.
