Bold Text Generator
Make bold text you can paste into Facebook, LinkedIn, X and Instagram: bold sans, bold serif, bold italic, bold script and bold gothic, plus Markdown and WhatsApp codes.
Unicode bold letters are symbols: screen readers may spell them out and search may not find them, so keep names, links and key facts in plain text.

Facebook, LinkedIn, Instagram and X posts have no bold button, but they will display Unicode letters that are drawn bold. This generator converts your words into those letters, in sans-serif (the cleanest look on phones), serif, italic, script or gothic weights, and also gives the formatting codes for apps that understand them, like Markdown in Discord and Reddit or asterisks in WhatsApp.
How to use this tool
- Type the words you want to stand out, such as a headline or call to action.
- Pick a bold style; bold sans-serif matches most apps’ own font best.
- Copy the result and paste it into your post, profile or comment.
- For Discord, Reddit, GitHub or WhatsApp, choose the formatting-code option instead so the text stays searchable.
Formula
Bold sans A = U+1D5D4, a = U+1D5EE, 0 = U+1D7EC · Bold serif A = U+1D400, a = U+1D41A, 0 = U+1D7CE
Each letter is replaced by the character at the style’s starting code point plus its position in the alphabet. Bold italic has no digits of its own in Unicode, so its digits use the matching bold digits. Letters with accents keep the accent as a combining mark, and emoji or non-Latin text stay unchanged.
Example
“Bold 123” in bold sans-serif becomes 𝗕𝗼𝗹𝗱 𝟭𝟮𝟯, and in bold serif 𝐁𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝟏𝟐𝟑. The sample “We are hiring! Apply by June 30” becomes 𝗪𝗲 𝗮𝗿𝗲 𝗵𝗶𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴! 𝗔𝗽𝗽𝗹𝘆 𝗯𝘆 𝗝𝘂𝗻𝗲 𝟯𝟬, ready to paste as the first line of a LinkedIn post.
Frequently asked questions
How do I make text bold on Facebook or LinkedIn?
Neither offers bold in normal posts, so paste Unicode bold letters from this tool. They show bold on phones and computers without any setting.
Is Unicode bold text bad for accessibility?
It can be. Screen readers may read each letter as “mathematical bold capital W” or skip it, and the words are not found by search. Use it for a short heading or a few key words, never for the whole post or for names and links.
Why do formatting codes not work in Instagram?
Markdown asterisks and HTML tags only work where the app converts them, such as Discord, Reddit, GitHub, Slack and WhatsApp. Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn show them as typed, so use the Unicode styles there.
