Can a Base64 string contain tabs?
It depends on what you’re asking. If you are asking whether or not tabs can be base-64 encoded, then the answer is ‘yes’ since they can be treated the same as any other ASCII character.
However, if you are asking whether or not base-64 output can contain tabs, then the answer is no. The following link is for an article detailing base-64, including which characters are considered valid:
