Message structure

Text to Morse Formatting Guide

The encoder preserves word and line boundaries while mapping each supported character to its standard signal.

Letters

A–Z are converted without case sensitivity.

Numbers

0–9 use standard International Morse patterns.

Words

Spaces in the source text become slash separators.

Line breaks

Each source line remains a separate Morse line.

Unsupported characters

They are flagged in the signal strip.

Worked messages

Text to Morse Code Examples

Compare familiar text with its complete Morse result.

SOS

... --- ...

Three letters with one space between signals.

HELLO

.... . .-.. .-.. ---

Five source letters become five Morse patterns.

I LOVE YOU

.. / .-.. --- ...- . / -.-- --- ..-

Slashes preserve the three-word structure.

Troubleshooting

Common Encoding Errors

Do not type dots and dashes into this page when you want to decode them; use the focused decoder instead. Check the signal strip when a symbol is marked unsupported. Word spaces become slashes, while letter patterns use single spaces. TXT download saves the written Morse result and does not create an audio file.
