Code → Image

Renders a code snippet to a downloadable PNG.

Code to Image renders a code snippet to a downloadable PNG right in your browser. Paste any code, pick a dark or light theme and font size, and get a clean monospace screenshot you can save and share. It's handy when you want a quick image of code for docs, slides, or social posts without installing anything or signing up.

Common uses

  • Turn a code snippet into a PNG to embed in slides, blog posts, or documentation
  • Create a shareable code screenshot for social media or chat without taking a manual screen capture
  • Generate consistent, high-resolution code images at 2x scale for retina displays
  • Switch between dark and light backgrounds to match the theme of your article or presentation
  • Bump the font size up or down so the snippet stays readable when scaled in a thumbnail

FAQ

Is my code sent to a server?

No. The entire conversion runs in your browser using a canvas element, and the PNG is generated locally. Your code is never uploaded or stored anywhere.

What format does the tool export?

It exports a PNG image, downloaded as code.png. The image is rendered at 2x scale for crisp output on high-density screens.

Does it add syntax highlighting?

No. Code is drawn as plain monospace text in a single foreground color over a solid background. You can choose a dark or light theme, but tokens are not colorized.

Can I change the font size?

Yes. Set the font size in the options; values are clamped between 8 and 48 pixels, and anything outside that range or left blank falls back to a sensible default.

How is the image size determined?

The width and height are calculated automatically from the longest line and the number of lines, plus padding. There is a minimum canvas size so very short snippets still produce a usable image.
