The basic need for a [https://mainconverter.com/binary-to-text-converter/ binary-to-text] encoding comes from a need to communicate arbitrary [[binary data]] over preexisting [[communications protocol]]s that were designed to carry only English language [[human-readable]] text. Those communication protocols may only be 7-bit safe (and within that avoid certain ASCII control codes), and may require [[line break (computing)|line break]]s at certain maximum intervals, and may not maintain [[whitespace (computer science)|whitespace]]. Thus, only the 94 [[ASCII#ASCII printable characters|printable ASCII characters]] are "safe" to use to convey data.
