Small Text Generator
Turn text into small caps, superscript or subscript Unicode characters, see which letters have no small form, and copy and paste the result. How it works
Use the Small Text Generator
Small caps
Lowercase letters become small capital letters (ʜᴇʟʟᴏ for "hello") and capitals stay as typed. There is no small capital q or x in this tool.
No small cap form in this tool for x, so kept as typed.
Superscript (Tiny)
Lowercase letters become small modifier letters and capitals become capital modifier letters (ᴴᵉˡˡᵒ for "Hello"). This tool has no superscript q and no superscript capitals C, F, Q, S, X, Y or Z.
No superscript form in this tool for S, so kept as typed.
Subscript (Low)
Note: this tool uses subscript letters only for lowercase a e h i j k l m n o p r s t u v x, plus digits and signs. Other letters are kept as typed and are not used by this tool.
No subscript form in this tool for S, T, G, so kept as typed.
About the Small Text Generator
“Hello” becomes ᴴᵉˡˡᵒ in superscript and Hₑₗₗₒ in subscript. The small text generator swaps each letter, digit and sign for the Unicode character that is drawn smaller and raised or lowered. A character with no such form stays as typed, and the page lists those letters under each result. A third result gives small caps: “hello” becomes ʜᴇʟʟᴏ.

Superscript has 59 entries and subscript has 32. The lowercase superscript letters are small modifier letters and the capitals are capital modifier letters, so a capital H and a lowercase h give different results.
Examples
| Input | Superscript | Subscript |
|---|---|---|
| Hello | ᴴᵉˡˡᵒ | Hₑₗₗₒ |
| H2O | ᴴ²ᴼ | H₂O |
| E=mc2 | ᴱ⁼ᵐᶜ² | E₌ₘc₂ |
| x2 + y2 = z2 | ˣ² ⁺ ʸ² ⁼ ᶻ² | ₓ₂ ₊ y₂ ₌ z₂ |
| Quiz | Qᵘⁱᶻ | Qᵤᵢz |
Whatever you type is converted, so to write m² type the 2 alone, copy ², and paste it after the m.

Each small capital is a Unicode LATIN LETTER SMALL CAPITAL character, such as ᴀ (U+1D00) and ʙ (U+0299). Capitals stay as typed, as they do in printed small caps.
How to use this tool
- Type or paste text in Input Text. All three results update as you type.
- Read the Small caps, Superscript (Tiny) and Subscript (Low) results.
- Check the note under each result: it lists the letters that were kept as typed.
- Press Copy beside the result you want and paste it where you need it.
Frequently asked questions
- How do I make small text I can copy and paste?
- Type in Input Text and press Copy beside the Superscript (Tiny) or Subscript (Low) result. The characters are ordinary Unicode text, so “Hello” pastes as ᴴᵉˡˡᵒ or Hₑₗₗₒ into any field that accepts Unicode. Whether you can read it depends on the font: where the font has no glyph for a character, you see an empty box, so check the pasted result.
- How do I type H₂O and other subscript numbers?
- Type H2O. All ten digits have a subscript form, so the 2 becomes ₂ and the result is H₂O. The H and the O stay as typed, because this tool’s subscript table has no capital letters.
- Why do some letters stay normal size?
- The tool changes a character only when its table has an entry for it. Superscript has no q and no capitals C F Q S X Y Z. Subscript has only lowercase a e h i j k l m n o p r s t u v x, so b c d f g q w y z and every capital stay as typed. For the default text “Small Text Generator” the subscript note lists S, T and G.
- Is there a superscript q?
- Not in this tool. Unicode does have a small q, MODIFIER LETTER SMALL Q (U+107A5, in the Latin Extended-F chart), and a modifier capital Q (U+A7F4), but this tool uses neither because a font may have no glyph for them, so both q and Q stay as typed.
- Is small text the same as small caps?
- No. Small caps, such as ᴀʙᴄ, are capital-shaped letters at a lowercase size; superscript and subscript letters are raised or lowered. The tool makes all three. Its Small caps result turns “hello” into ʜᴇʟʟᴏ and keeps capitals as typed. Unicode 16.0 has no small capital x, and the tool leaves q as typed too, although LATIN LETTER SMALL CAPITAL Q exists at U+A7AF, so “quiz box” gives qᴜɪᴢ ʙᴏx.
- Does Unicode have newer small letters that this tool is missing?
- Yes, and they arrived at different times. Modifier capitals C, F and Q date from Unicode 14.0 (2021), capital S from 17.0 (2025), and subscript w, y and z from 18.0 (2026). The tool’s tables leave them out, so those letters stay as typed; the newer a character, the more likely an older phone or font shows it as an empty box.
