Tiny text, small caps and subscript
Small Text Generator: Copy and Paste Tiny Text ᵗⁱⁿʸ ᵗᵉˣᵗ
Make tiny superscript text, small caps and subscript to copy and paste. See which letters have no tiny version: superscript q, subscript b c d f g q w y z.
Small caps
ᴛɪɴʏ ᴛᴇxᴛ ɢᴇɴᴇʀᴀᴛᴏʀ
Small capital letters. Unicode has no small capital X, so x stays plain.
Tiny text (superscript)
ᵗⁱⁿʸ ᵗᵉˣᵗ ᵍᵉⁿᵉʳᵃᵗᵒʳ
Tiny raised letters. Unicode has no common superscript q, so q stays plain.
Subscript
ₜᵢₙy ₜₑₓₜ gₑₙₑᵣₐₜₒᵣ
Tiny lowered letters. Only a, e, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, r, s, t, u, v, x and digits exist; other letters stay plain.
These are Unicode symbols that look like fonts, not real fonts. Screen readers may read them one symbol at a time or skip them, so avoid them for anything important. Some apps, forms and games strip or replace them. Letters that a style has no version of stay plain.
Convert back to normal text
Paste text written in any of these styles. Letters and digits become plain A–Z and 0–9. Frames and decorative symbols you added stay as they are.
Everything runs in your browser. What you type is not uploaded or saved. These styles are Unicode symbols, so how they look depends on the device and app you paste into.
Three small styles
Small caps (ꜱᴍᴀʟʟ ᴄᴀᴘꜱ) keeps letters at normal height, drawn as small capital shapes. Superscript, sometimes called tiny text, raises the letters (ˢᵘᵖᵉʳˢᶜʳⁱᵖᵗ). Subscript lowers them (ₛᵤᵦₛ꜀ᵣᵢₚₜ), and covers fewer letters than superscript.
Letters with no version
Unicode did not encode every letter in every small style, so the missing ones stay plain in the result. Superscript has no common q. Subscript has no b, c, d, f, g, q, w, y or z. Small caps has no x. A word with those letters will look uneven, and some pasted text may mix tiny and normal-size letters.
- Superscript: everything except q.
- Subscript: a e h i j k l m n o p r s t u v x and the digits 0–9.
- Small caps: every letter except x.
Common questions
Is this the same as making text smaller?
No. It swaps each letter for a different character that looks small, so it works where you cannot change the font size.
Why is one letter bigger than the rest?
That letter has no tiny version in Unicode and stays plain. Superscript misses q, subscript misses b c d f g q w y z and small caps misses x.
Can I use tiny text for footnote numbers?
For short numbers, yes: superscript digits ¹ ² ³ work in most apps. Do not use them in documents that need real footnotes or formulas.

Copy-and-paste fonts are not fonts at all. They are look-alike characters from different Unicode blocks. Learn which blocks supply each style and why some letters have gaps.

Discord and Instagram Text Formatting: Markdown vs Unicode Styles
Discord has built-in markdown for bold, italic, underline, strikethrough, headers, spoilers and code. Instagram does not, which is why people use Unicode styles. Compare both and see the caveats.
