FAQ
Common questions
The converter handles decimal numbers from 1 up to 3,999 (matching the Roman numeral limit of MMMCMXCIX). Numbers 4,000 and above require horizontal lines above characters (vinculum notation) for representation, which are not supported by standard text fonts.
If you input incorrect character patterns (such as writing IIII instead of IV or typing non-Roman letters), the converter triggers a format warning. This prevents incorrect date formatting on certificates and outlines.
Roman numerals do not have a symbol for zero or negative values. If you input zero or a negative decimal, the tool will display a validation error advising you to enter positive integers starting from one.
No, the conversion calculations run locally within your web browser. None of the dates, outline names, or Roman numerals are transmitted to external servers, keeping your data private.
