How to use ASCII art text

ASCII art is plain text, so it can be copied into markdown files, code comments, terminal banners, chat messages, and profile sections that preserve spacing. For best results, use short words and a monospace display.

Formatting notes for Markdown, WeChat, and social apps

ASCII art depends on preserved spaces, fixed line breaks, and monospace character widths. If any app changes those rules, the shape can drift or collapse.

DestinationBest formatWhy
Markdown / README```text fenced code blockPrevents Markdown syntax from interpreting underscores, backslashes, angle brackets, or repeated spaces.
Code comments / terminalPlain text or .txtThese environments usually preserve monospace alignment and line breaks.
WeChat / Twitter / InstagramPNG imageChat bubbles and social apps often use proportional fonts, trim spaces, or wrap long lines.
Discord / SlackCode block if supportedCode blocks are more likely to preserve monospace spacing than normal messages.

Text ASCII, image ASCII, TXT, and PNG

These names sound similar, but they solve different problems.

Text to ASCII

Turns typed words into FIGlet banner text. This is the current tool.

Image to ASCII

Reads pixels from an uploaded image, maps brightness to characters, and creates a picture-like text version. This is a separate image-processing tool.

.txt export

Saves the exact plain text output. Best for terminals, source files, README code blocks, and archives.

PNG export

Turns the ASCII art into an image so alignment survives in WeChat and social apps.
