You dont convert binary data to hexadecimal. You display it as hexadecimal. If you want to print file contents to console in hex do something like this. import std.stdio; import std.algorithm; auto fd = File("filename", "r"); //open file for reading ubyte[] data; //a GC allocated buffer for data fd.rawRead(data); //read the data data[0..50].each!(n => stdout.writef("%X ",n)); /*take 50 elements from array and for each of them call lambda that converts ubyte to string in hex format and prints to the stdout*/ if you want to assign to this data you can do something like this data[0] = Oxff; And then write to file

This will not work. To be able to write to a binary file, you will have to use "wb".
