ASCII banner generator
Type a short word or a line of text and this tool draws it large, letter by letter, using a built-in blocky monospace font made of '#' characters (or a fill glyph you choose). It's the classic look of a terminal splash screen or a README heading — the kind of banner you'd otherwise build by hand in a text editor, one column at a time.
Only the font's supported characters — A to Z and 0 to 9 — get a real glyph; anything else, including accented letters, punctuation and emoji, renders as a blank column so spacing stays honest about what you typed rather than silently dropping characters. Lowercase input is uppercased automatically, since the font only draws capitals, so you can type naturally and let the tool handle the casing. Multi-line input is supported at the input box, but the banner itself is drawn from the first line only — a banner is a single heading, not a paragraph, so pick the line you want rendered and put it first.
This is different from an ASCII box: a box draws a border around text you already have, while this tool redraws the letters themselves at a much larger size, so a four-letter word like "SALE" becomes a five-line, dozens-of-characters-wide block of text. Swap the fill glyph from '#' to '@', '*' or '$' when you want a different texture for the same shape — useful for matching the character set already used in a code comment or chat message.
Everything runs locally in your browser the moment you type — there is no server round trip and nothing is uploaded. Copy the result or download it as a .txt file and paste it straight into a terminal, a README, a commit message or a code comment.
FAQ
Which characters does the font support?
The built-in font draws the letters A–Z and digits 0–9. Anything else — accented letters, punctuation, emoji — has no glyph, so it renders as a blank column instead of being dropped or guessed at.
Do I need to type in uppercase?
No. Lowercase letters are automatically uppercased before rendering, since the font only has capital letters.
Can I use a character other than # for the banner?
Yes. The "Fill glyph" option swaps every '#' in the output for '@', '*' or '$' while keeping the exact same shape.
What happens if I paste multiple lines?
Only the first line is rendered into the banner. Put the text you want as the heading on its own first line.
Is my text uploaded anywhere?
No. The banner is generated entirely in your browser — your text never leaves your device.
