How to use it
- Type or paste the text in Text.
- Find the style you want in the list of results.
- Press Copy under that style and paste it where you need it.
How the styles are made
Each letter or digit is replaced by a look-alike character from a block of the Unicode standard. Bold, italic, bold italic, script, fraktur, double-struck, monospace and sans-serif come from the Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols. Circled letters come from the Enclosed Alphanumerics, fullwidth letters from the Halfwidth and Fullwidth Forms, small capitals from the Phonetic Extensions, and the upside-down letters are turned letters of the IPA Extensions.
The characters are chosen from the Unicode Character Database. Where a script or fraktur letter sits in the Letterlike Symbols block, because the main block has a hole there, the tool uses that character instead.
What does not change
- Turkish ç, ğ, ı, İ, ş, ö and ü have no bold, script or circled form in Unicode, so they stay as they are.
- Italic, script and fraktur have no digits, so the digits stay plain there.
- X has no small capital in Unicode and stays as it is; in small capitals, capitals and digits stay as they are.
- Spaces, punctuation and emoji are kept as they are, except where a style has a fullwidth or upside-down version of a mark.
Reading, showing and searching
A screen reader may read these characters by their Unicode names, or skip them, so do not use styled letters for text that must be read aloud or understood. Some apps and older phones do not show them and display empty boxes instead.
The styled text is ordinary text, not formatting. Search for the plain word and a styled word will not match it.
Worked example: Hello, world! 123
The default sample gives these two results. Each letter becomes one character, so the bold text has the same number of characters as the input. The upside-down text reverses the order, so the 123 comes first.
| Style | Result |
|---|---|
| Bold | 𝐇𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐨, 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝! 𝟏𝟐𝟑 |
| Upside down | 321 ¡plɹoʍ ‚ollǝH |
Frequently asked questions
Are these styles real bold or italic formatting?
No. They are separate Unicode characters, so the text does not carry formatting. A place that cannot show them falls back to another font or to empty boxes.
Can I paste styled text into a social media post or a title?
Usually yes, because the characters are ordinary text. Check the result on the site you use, since some sites remove or replace unusual characters.
Why do Turkish letters stay the same in these styles?
The Unicode blocks used here have no bold, script or circled versions of ç, ğ, ı, İ, ş, ö or ü, so the tool keeps them as they are. A word that contains them is only partly styled.
Do screen readers read styled text correctly?
Not always. A screen reader may spell out the Unicode name of each character or skip it, so avoid these styles for important text.
Is my text sent to a server?
No. The styles are computed in your browser from a table of characters. Nothing is stored and nothing is sent to our server.
What is the difference between small capitals and capitals?
Small capitals such as ᴀ, ʙ and ᴄ are separate Unicode characters drawn like capitals. A search for the normal word will not match them.
