What encoding does the binary use?

Text is encoded as UTF-8 bytes, each shown as an 8-bit binary group separated by spaces. This correctly handles ASCII plus accented and non-Latin characters.

Why do I get an error decoding binary?

Binary input must be groups of 8 bits (0s and 1s). Remove stray characters or incomplete groups — the decoder validates length and content before converting.
