Small text is hard to read, so keep it to a few words.
Superscript
Raised small letters, like a footnote or x².
ᴹᵃᵈᵉ ʷⁱᵗʰ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ⁱⁿ ᴸⁱˢᵇᵒⁿ ²⁰²⁶
Subscript
Lowered small letters, like H₂O. Many letters are missing in Unicode.
ₘₐdₑ wᵢₜₕ ₗₒᵥₑ ᵢₙ ₗᵢₛbₒₙ ₂₀₂₆
Capitals with no small version, shown as lowercase: M L
No small version, left as normal: d w b
Small caps
Capitals stay, lowercase becomes small capitals.
Mᴀᴅᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ɪɴ Lɪsʙᴏɴ 2026
No small version, left as normal: s 2 0 6
All small caps
Every letter as a small capital, for an even, quiet line.
ᴍᴀᴅᴇ ᴡɪᴛʜ ʟᴏᴠᴇ ɪɴ ʟɪsʙᴏɴ 2026
No small version, left as normal: s 2 0 6
Tiny
Superscript where possible, small caps for the rest. The smallest overall.
ᵐᵃᵈᵉ ʷⁱᵗʰ ˡᵒᵛᵉ ⁱⁿ ˡⁱˢᵇᵒⁿ ²⁰²⁶
Back to normal text
Paste superscript, subscript or small caps to turn them back into regular letters.
Normal text
Why some letters can't be made small
Small text uses characters that were added to Unicode for specific jobs: phonetic transcription, maths exponents and chemical formulas. Nobody designed a complete small alphabet, so the sets have gaps.
- Superscript: every lowercase letter except q, and most capitals except C, F, Q, S, X, Y and Z. Missing capitals are shown as small lowercase letters instead.
- Subscript: only 17 lowercase letters, all digits and a few symbols. Letters like b, c, d, g and y stay normal.
- Small caps: every letter except q, s and x has a small capital that displays reliably.
Unicode 14 added a few more superscript letters, but most phones and fonts can't show them yet, so this tool leaves them out to avoid empty boxes in your bio.
Good uses
A tiny tagline under your name, a trademark or footnote marker, a chemical formula like CO₂, or a small "ᵃᵈ" label. Keep it short: small letters are hard to read on a phone and screen readers often skip them.
How it works
How to use it
- Step 1
Type your text
Enter the words you want to shrink, such as a short tagline, a footnote or a label.
- Step 2
Pick a size style
Compare superscript, subscript, small caps and tiny text. Each style shows which characters had no small version.
- Step 3
Copy and paste
Copy the result into your bio, caption, username or message. It works anywhere you can paste text.
FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Answers to common questions about the Small Text Generator.
The small letters are separate Unicode characters, originally made for phonetics, maths and chemistry, that look like raised, lowered or shrunken letters. The tool swaps your letters for them, so the text stays small wherever you paste it.
Unicode doesn't have a small version of every letter. Superscript has no widely supported q, and only some capitals exist. Subscript is the most limited: only a, e, h, i, j, k, l, m, n, o, p, r, s, t, u, v and x exist. The tool lists every character that fell back so you know what to expect.
Superscript letters sit high, like the 2 in x². Subscript letters sit low, like the 2 in H₂O. Small caps are capital letter shapes at the height of lowercase letters, which look neat and even on one line.
Tiny text mixes styles to get the smallest possible result for every letter. It uses a superscript letter when one exists and a small capital when it doesn't, so the whole word stays small.
Usernames only allow normal letters, numbers, full stops and underscores, so small text won't work there. You can use it in your display name, bio, captions and comments. Keep searchable words in normal text, because search won't match these characters.
Not very. Screen readers may read each character as 'modifier letter small A' or skip it, and the letters are hard to read on small screens. Use it for short decorative touches, not for information people need.
