About ASCII Text Banner Generator
This tool turns any short line of text into a big ASCII-art banner, the kind you see at the top of README files, terminal login screens, and code comments. Type your words and each character is drawn seven lines tall from a built-in pixel font, so the output is plain text you can paste anywhere a monospace font is used.
You can choose the fill character used to draw the letters (hash, solid block, star, and others, or type your own), adjust the spacing between letters, and enter multiple lines that stack into separate banner blocks. The result is shown live and can be copied to your clipboard or saved as a .txt file.
The font covers A to Z, the digits 0 to 9, and common punctuation. Letters are drawn from a fixed 5x7 grid, so this is one clean "block" style rather than dozens of FIGlet fonts. Everything is computed in your browser, so nothing you type is uploaded or stored anywhere.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I make an ASCII text banner?
- Type your text in the box, pick a fill character and letter spacing, and the large banner appears instantly below. Then click Copy banner or Download .txt to use it.
- Where can I paste the banner so it looks right?
- Paste it anywhere that uses a monospace (fixed-width) font: a terminal, a code editor, a README or Markdown code block, a chat that supports code formatting, or a plain-text email. In proportional fonts the columns may not line up.
- Which characters are supported?
- Uppercase and lowercase letters A-Z (both drawn the same), digits 0-9, spaces, and common punctuation such as ! ? . , : - + = / ( ) * # @ & and underscore. Anything outside the font is rendered as blank space, and the tool tells you when that happens.
- Can I choose the character the letters are made of?
- Yes. Pick from presets like hash, solid block, star, at-sign, or dollar, or choose Custom and type any single character you want to build the letters from.
- Is my text private?
- Yes. The banner is generated entirely in your browser using a built-in font. There are no network calls, uploads, or sign-ups, so your text never leaves your device.
- How tall are the letters?
- Every character is drawn on a 5-wide by 7-tall grid, so each banner line is exactly seven rows of text, regardless of how many words you type.
