What is this full-width / half-width converter?
A free, browser-based tool that converts text between full-width (全角) and half-width (半角) forms. Choose which character classes to convert — ASCII letters and symbols, digits only, or katakana — and switch the direction with a single toggle. Half-width katakana with combining dakuten / handakuten marks is handled correctly (ガ ↔ ガ). Everything runs locally in your browser, so your text is never uploaded.
How to use it
- Type or paste your text into the box on the left.
- Pick the direction — Full → Half or Half → Full.
- Check the character classes you want to convert (ASCII, digits, katakana).
- Copy the result or download it as a text file.
Common use cases
- Normalizing full-width digits and symbols in phone numbers, postal codes, or order IDs before a CSV import.
- Cleaning half-width katakana from legacy systems into readable full-width katakana.
- Standardizing form input so duplicate detection and matching work reliably.
