How to use the small text generator
- 1Type your text into Your text.
- 2Choose a style: Tiny text (superscript), Subscript or All small caps.
- 3Check the note under the style for letters that couldn't be shrunk.
- 4Press Copy on that row and paste the tiny text where you need it.
Example
tiny text for my bio
Tiny text (superscript): ᵗⁱⁿʸ ᵗᵉˣᵗ ᶠᵒʳ ᵐʸ ᵇⁱᵒ Subscript: ₜᵢₙy ₜₑₓₜ fₒᵣ ₘy bᵢₒ All small caps: ᴛɪɴʏ ᴛᴇxᴛ ꜰᴏʀ ᴍʏ ʙɪᴏ
Subscript leaves “f”, “y” and “b” full size because Unicode has no subscript forms for them; the tool lists such letters under the style.
Superscript tiny text
Tiny text (superscript) replaces each letter with a raised small letter. Most come from Unicode's phonetic “modifier letters” (ᵃ ᵇ ᶜ) and the superscript digits (¹ ² ³). Capitals use the small capital superscripts where they exist (ᴬ ᴮ ᴰ); C, F, Q, S, X, Y and Z have none, so they use the small superscript letter instead.
Subscript text
Unicode has lowered (subscript) forms for all digits, a few symbols (₊ ₋ ₌ ₍ ₎) and only 17 letters: a, e, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, r, s, t, u, v and x. That's enough for chemical formulas such as H₂O and CO₂, but most words come out patchy, as the example shows.
Why some letters don't shrink
The tiny letters weren't designed as an alphabet; they were added over the years for phonetics and mathematics, one letter at a time as scholars needed them. There is no superscript q, and no subscript b, c, d, f, g, q, w, y or z. Rather than substitute a different-looking symbol, the tool leaves those letters at full size and lists them under the style, so you can reword or accept the mix. Punctuation and emoji also stay as they are.
Where small text works and where it breaks
Tiny text pastes into Instagram and TikTok bios, Discord messages and nicknames, and most chat apps, because the characters are in the standard system fonts. Problems: some games and sites reject them in usernames, a few characters (ᶠ, ᶻ) render in a different style on some phones, and the text is hard to read at small sizes. For small capitals rather than raised letters, see the small caps generator.
Screen readers and tiny text
Screen readers may announce each tiny letter by its Unicode name (“modifier letter small t”) or skip it, which makes a bio or message unreadable for blind users. Search inside apps also won't find words written in tiny letters. Keep tiny text decorative, for a word or two, and write anything important in normal letters.
