[[Ascii85]], '''ASCII base-85''', or '''Base85''', is a binary-to-text encoding originally implemented by Paul Rutter in the 'btoa' program. It is similar in concept to [[Base64]] and [[Uuencoding|Uuencode]]. A slight modification of it is used in [[PDF]] and [[PostScript]] files. It is also used in the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mktags/ MkTags Matroska tag editor]. There are several varieties of this encoding.<br />
<br />
== Identification ==<br />
In the original [[uuencoding]]-like format used by 'btoa', the encoded data is delimited by lines that begin with "<code>xbtoa Begin</code>" and "<code>xbtoa End</code>".<br />
<br />
In PostScript, the "<code>&lt;~</code>" delimiter marks the beginning of an ASCII base-85 string literal. The "<code>~&gt;</code>" EOD marker is added by the ASCII85Encode filter when it is closed, hence it should be regarded as being part of the encoded data. Outside of PostScript, there is no official delimiter to mark the beginning of ASCII base-85 encoded data. In PDF it doesn't matter, since the data (including the EOD marker) is stored in a stream object.<br />

[[Ascii85]], or '''Base85''', is a binary-to-text encoding. It is similar in concept to [[Base64]] and [[Uuencoding|Uuencode]]. It is often used in [[PDF]] and [[PostScript]] files, and rarely anywhere else. One example among very few is the [http://sourceforge.net/projects/mktags/ MkTags Matroska tag editor]. There are several varieties of this encoding.<br />
<br />
== Identification ==<br />
In PostScript, the "<code>&lt;~</code>" delimiter marks the beginning of an ASCII base-85 string literal. The "<code>~&gt;</code>" EOD marker is added by the ASCII85Encode filter when it is closed, hence it should be regarded as being part of the encoded data. Outside of PostScript, there is no official delimiter to mark the beginning of ASCII base-85 encoded data. In PDF, they solve it by putting the data (including the EOD marker) in a stream object, but that's a different story.<br />
<br />
There is also a [[uuencoding]]-like format, delimited by lines that begin with "<code>xbtoa Begin</code>" and "<code>xbtoa End</code>".<br />
