Frequently Asked Questions

ASCII art text uses standard keyboard characters (letters, numbers, symbols) to create large decorative banners. Commonly used in readme files, terminal displays, email signatures, and code comments.

Choose from multiple FIGlet-style fonts including Standard (classic block), Banner (wide letters), Big (tall style), Small (compact), Block (solid), Slant (diagonal), Shadow (3D effect), and Bubble (rounded).

Yes. The width setting controls horizontal spacing: Full (default spacing), Fitted (condensed), Smush (overlapping), and Kerned (proportional). This lets you create compact or wide banners.

Horizontal layout (default) creates traditional left-to-right banners. Vertical layout stacks letters top-to-bottom, useful for sidebar displays or artistic arrangements.

All standard ASCII characters: A-Z (uppercase and lowercase), 0-9, and common symbols (!@#$%^&*()_+-=[]{}|;:',.<>?/~). Unsupported characters are displayed as-is or omitted.

Yes. Click 'Copy to Clipboard' to instantly copy the entire banner. The formatting and spacing are preserved, ready to paste into any text editor, terminal, or code file.

Click 'Download .txt' to save your ASCII art as a plain text file. The file preserves all formatting and can be opened in any text editor or imported into documentation.

Some font styles are wider than others. Try a narrower font (Small, Standard) or use Fitted/Smush width settings. Long text may exceed typical terminal widths (80 characters).

Perfect for code headers! ASCII art banners make great file headers, section dividers, and function separators. Just add your language's comment syntax (// or # or /* */) before each line.
