Frequently Asked Questions
My timestamp converts to 1970. What went wrong?
You almost certainly have milliseconds in a field expecting seconds, or the reverse. A seconds timestamp today is ten digits; milliseconds is thirteen. Dividing or multiplying by 1000 fixes it.
What is a Unix timestamp?
The number of seconds since 1 January 1970 UTC. Because it is a single number with no timezone attached, it is unambiguous everywhere — which is exactly why systems store time this way instead of as formatted text.
Why does the date differ from what my database shows?
Timezone. The timestamp itself is UTC; whatever displays it applies a local offset. This tool shows both, which is usually enough to see immediately whether you are looking at a real discrepancy or a display difference.
What is the 2038 problem?
Systems storing timestamps as a signed 32-bit integer overflow in January 2038. Modern platforms use 64-bit and are unaffected, but old embedded systems and legacy database columns are still a genuine concern.
Can I convert a date back to a timestamp?
Yes, in both directions. Enter a date and time and get the Unix value, with the timezone you are working in shown explicitly so the result is unambiguous.

Tips for better results
- Test the output in its real destination before producing it in bulk.
- Where a size is offered, pick the largest you may need — scaling down keeps quality, scaling up does not.
- The page works offline once loaded, which is useful on an unreliable connection.
Common problems and how to fix them
The output does not work where you pasted it
The destination expects a different format or encoding. Check what it accepts and re-generate accordingly.
The result is too small to use
Increase the size or resolution before generating rather than enlarging the file afterwards.
Nothing happens when you click
A required field is empty, or a browser extension is blocking the script. Try a private window with extensions disabled.
