How to use the Text Art Generator

Three steps, all processed in your browser.

1

Write a word or title

Type the heading, name or short phrase you want to decorate.

2

Try different fonts

Compare fonts until the style fits — clean for code comments, bold for banners.

3

Paste it anywhere

Copy the art into Discord, a README, a code comment or your terminal profile.

Decorative text art for anywhere that shows plain text

Text art turns a word or a name into a decorative heading built from characters. Because the result is plain text, it works in places where you can't use images: code comments, config files, terminal prompts, chat messages and README files.

Choosing a style:

  • For code comments and READMEs, pick compact fonts such as Small or Mini so the heading doesn't dominate the file.
  • For Discord or forum posts, bold fonts such as Big, Block or Doom stand out.
  • For terminal profiles, slanted and shadow styles look good above a prompt.

Try a few fonts with your actual text — letter shapes vary a lot, and a font that looks great for one word can be hard to read for another.

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from the Text to ASCII generator? ▼

Both use the same engine and fonts. This page is set up for short decorative headings and word art; the Text to ASCII page focuses on banner text.

How do I add text art to a code comment? ▼

Copy the plain text and paste it inside a block comment. Most editors keep the spacing because code is shown in a monospace font.

Can I make the text art bigger? ▼

The size comes from the font. Choose a larger font for bigger letters, or export a PNG or SVG and scale it up.
