About Code to Image
A code image is a picture of a code snippet for slides, social posts, and documentation where pasted text would lose its formatting. This tool draws your code in a monospace font on a rounded panel over a colored backdrop, at twice the pixel density so it stays sharp on high-resolution screens. Tabs become two spaces and long lines are not wrapped. The text is drawn in a single color without syntax highlighting.
Also known as: Code to Image Converter, Code Screenshot Generator, Code Snippet Screenshot.

Questions about Code to Image
Should I share code as an image or as text?
Use text whenever readers may want to copy the code or use a screen reader, since an image cannot be selected or read aloud. Images suit previews and slides. When you post one, include the code or a link to it as well.
