Limits and behavior

This tool uses the common modern canonical convention for integers 1–3999. It rejects zero, negatives, fractions, noncanonical forms such as IIII or IC, and historical variants outside that convention.

FAQ

Why is IIII rejected?

The supported canonical convention writes 4 as IV. Historical inscriptions used other forms, but this converter deliberately validates one consistent modern form.
