What this tool does

An ASCII banner spells out short text using a bitmap font made entirely of plain characters, so it can be pasted into a terminal, a code comment, a README or a chat window that can't render images. This tool ships a compact built-in 5-row font covering uppercase letters, digits and a handful of punctuation marks, and draws up to 16 characters at a time entirely in your browser.

How to use it

  1. Type up to 16 letters, numbers or basic punctuation.
  2. Read the large ASCII banner it draws.
  3. Copy the banner as plain text.

Frequently asked questions

Which characters are supported?
Letters A-Z, digits 0-9, space, and the punctuation marks ! ? . , - and '. Anything else renders as a blank space.
Why is the text capped at 16 characters?
Each character draws five characters wide, so longer banners quickly become too wide to read on most screens; 16 characters keeps the output usable.
Is anything uploaded?
No. The banner is drawn in your browser.
