When this tool is useful

Convert a year, outline label or edition number into standard Roman numerals without manually combining symbols. Choose the direction before entering either a decimal integer or a Roman numeral. The reverse conversion accepts lowercase input and normalizes it to uppercase, then checks that the spelling follows the usual subtractive forms such as IV, IX, XL and CM.

Reading the result and limitations

The supported range is one through 3999, using the symbols I, V, X, L, C, D and M. Zero, negative values, fractions, overlines and historical additive variants are outside this tool. Noncanonical strings such as IIII or IC are rejected rather than assigned a guessed meaning. The JSON result includes both representations so you can inspect the conversion before copying it into a document.
