Quoted-Printable Encode
Quoted-Printable Encode is a free online encoder that helps you encode text to Quoted-Printable (RFC 2045); for email bodies. Non-ASCII bytes become =XX, lines soft-wrap at 76 columns. Quoted-Printable Encode uses 1 input field, returns 3 output values, and runs in your browser on the device.

Quoted-Printable Encode details
First, enter Text in Quoted-Printable Encode. Next, review Quoted-Printable encoded, Original size (bytes), and Encoded size (chars). Additionally, Quoted-Printable Encode uses 1 input field and 3 output blocks so the result is easy to scan and copy.
Quoted-Printable is the MIME encoding designed for email bodies that are mostly ASCII but contain occasional non-ASCII characters (think accented letters, em-dashes, smart quotes). Each byte outside printable ASCII becomes =XX (uppercase hex), the literal = is encoded as =3D, and any line longer than 76 characters is soft-wrapped with a trailing =CRLF. Quoted-Printable Encode encodes your text as UTF-8 and applies all the RFC 2045 §6.7 rules. Runs entirely in your browser.
