FAQ
What characters are used for ASCII art?
Each font uses a set of block characters like #, @, *, and others arranged in a character map array. The characters are carefully positioned to form recognizable letter shapes when rendered in a monospace font.
What is the maximum text length?
The tool accepts up to 20 characters. Longer text may produce output that is too wide for most screens and editors. For very long text, consider breaking it into multiple lines.
Will the art look correct in any editor?
The art requires a monospace font to display correctly. Most code editors, terminals, and text editors use monospace fonts by default. If the art looks misaligned, switch to a monospace font.
Can I use this for commercial projects?
Yes. The generated ASCII art can be freely used for any purpose including commercial projects, documentation, and creative works.
