Frequently Asked Questions

What fonts are available?
Over 20 fonts including Standard, Banner, Big, Block, Slant, Shadow, Small, Script, and more. Each font renders characters differently — try several to find the style that fits your use case.
Where can I use ASCII art?
ASCII art works great in code comments, README headers, terminal startup banners, CLI tool outputs, plain-text emails, chat messages, and forum posts — anywhere monospace text is displayed.
Are there character limits?
There is no hard limit, but shorter text (1-15 characters) works best. Longer strings may wrap or become hard to read depending on the font. Wide fonts need more horizontal space per character.
