> The Unicode text converter rewrites your text in bold, italic, script, Fraktur, double-struck, monospace, circled, full-width, small-caps, upside-down and strikethrough styles that you can paste into social media bios, chats and documents. It also lists each character’s Unicode code point and UTF-8 bytes. Everything is calculated in your browser; nothing you type is sent to our server.

## Inputs

- Your text

- Unicode code points
- UTF-8 bytes (hex)
- Characters

## Formula

```
Styled letters come from the Unicode “Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols” block (U+1D400–U+1D7FF) and other symbol blocks.
```

## Explanation

These are not fonts but different Unicode characters that look like styled letters, so they keep their style wherever they are pasted. Use them sparingly: screen readers may read them letter by letter or not at all, and search engines may not match them to normal words.

### How to use the Unicode Text Converter

- **Your text**

Everything runs in your browser, so results appear instantly and nothing you type is sent to a server.

### How it works

Each letter A–Z, a–z and 0–9 is mapped to the matching character in the chosen Unicode block; characters without a styled version are left unchanged.

## Worked example

## Key terms

- **Code point**: The number that identifies a character in Unicode, e.g. U+0041 for A.
- **UTF-8**: The most common way to store Unicode text as bytes; ASCII letters take 1 byte, emoji 4.

## FAQ

**Will fancy text work on Instagram or X?**
Usually yes, because they are standard Unicode characters, but some apps may not display every style.

**Is fancy text accessible?**
Not very: screen readers may skip or misread it, so avoid it for important information.

**What is a code point?**
The unique number Unicode assigns to each character, written U+ followed by hex digits.

**What formula does the Unicode Text Converter use?**
Styled letters come from the Unicode “Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols” block (U+1D400–U+1D7FF) and other symbol blocks.
