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 AโZ, aโz and 0โ9 is mapped to the matching character in the chosen Unicode block; characters without a styled version are left unchanged.
Formula
Styled letters come from the Unicode โMathematical Alphanumeric Symbolsโ block (U+1D400โU+1D7FF) and other symbol blocks.
