Create text banners with six lettering styles and editable exports.
About ASCII art generator
Turn a short message into a large character banner for a README, terminal screen, source-code header or text post. Six rendering styles share a compact Latin letter set; preview changes as you type and continue editing the result on the drawing canvas.
Steps, and limitations
How to use it
- Enter one or more lines of text. Latin letters, digits and punctuation are supported; lowercase is converted to uppercase.
- Choose solid, outline, shadow, slanted, compact or Braille-dot lettering. Adjust fill characters, spacing, alignment and a border.
- Copy plain text or a fenced Markdown block, export the result, or send it to the drawing canvas.
Things to know
- Solid, outline, shadow and slanted lettering can use plain ASCII. Compact lettering, Braille and decorative borders use Unicode; the output footer identifies the character set.
- Accented Latin characters are normalized. Unsupported glyphs are listed and replaced with a question-mark glyph, not silently dropped.
- Use a monospaced font and preserve spaces. Large outputs may need a smaller preview size or a text download instead of an image.
