Small Text Generator
Create superscript, subscript, and small caps text for social media.
About the Small Text Generator
Welcome to our Small Text Generator, a simple but powerful tool for creating unique text styles. If you have ever seen someone use tiny letters in their Instagram bio, or mathematical notations like x², you have seen small text in action. This tool allows you to instantly convert your standard keyboard text into Superscript, Subscript, or Small Caps styles.
These "fonts" are not actually separate fonts. They are sets of special characters from the Unicode standard. Unicode assigns a unique code to thousands of characters, including these tiny letter variations. Because they are standard text characters, you can copy and paste them almost anywhere—Facebook, Twitter (X), Discord, TikTok, and even in text messages.
Understanding the Styles
- Superscript (ˢᵐᵃˡˡ): These characters appear slightly above the normal text line. They are commonly used in mathematics for exponents (like 10⁵) or footnotes, but are also popular for making cute, tiny aesthetic text on social media.
- Subscript (ₛₘₐₗₗ): These characters appear slightly below the text line. They are often used in chemical formulas (like H₂O) or mathematics. Note that the Unicode standard is missing some subscript letters, so our tool does its best to provide readable replacements.
- Small Caps (Sᴍᴀʟʟ): This style uses uppercase letter glyphs that are sized similarly to lowercase letters. It creates a formal, standout look often used in typography for headings or acronyms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why are some subscript letters missing or look weird?
The Unicode standard was not originally designed to include a full alphabet of subscript characters. It only included those needed for math and science. As a result, letters like 'c', 'd', 'f', 'g', 'q', 'b', 'w', 'y', and 'z' do not have official subscript versions. Our tool uses the closest looking visual substitutes for these characters, but they might look slightly different from the others.
Can I use this on Instagram and TikTok?
Yes! Since this output is standard Unicode text, most social media platforms, games, and messaging apps display it correctly. It is a great way to make your username or bio stand out.
Is this tool free?
Yes, this Small Text Generator is 100% free. You can use it as many times as you like for personal or commercial projects without any restrictions.
How do I type small numbers?
Simply type regular numbers (0-9) into the input box. Our tool automatically converts them into their superscript (⁰¹²) or subscript (₀₁₂) equivalents depending on the mode you have selected.
Does this work for capital letters?
Superscript and subscript sets generally only support lowercase letters. If you type capital letters, our tool will map them to their lowercase tiny equivalents (e.g., 'A' becomes 'ᵃ' or 'ᴬ' depending on availability), or keep them as normal text if no match exists. Small Caps mode converts all text to the small uppercase style.
