Vertical Font Generator

Vertical Font Generator

Write words from top to bottom instead of left to right. The vertical font generator rearranges your text into a tall, narrow column that you can copy and paste into social media bios, captions, chat messages, game names and documents.

Four vertical layouts

• Vertical stack – one character per line; the simplest vertical text and the one most people need.
• Vertical with word gaps – the same stack with a blank line between words, so the phrase stays readable.
• Vertical with spaced letters – a blank line between every letter for an airy, poster-like effect.
• Vertical columns – every line of your input turns into its own column. Write a short poem on several lines and it appears as side-by-side vertical lines, the way East Asian text is traditionally typeset.

Options

Switch on wide (fullwidth) letters to replace the Latin letters with fullwidth characters. They have equal width, which makes stacks look cleaner and gives an aesthetic, vaporwave style. The right-to-left columns switch controls the order of the columns: on, the first line is the right-most column, as in tategaki writing; off, it is the left-most.

Where it helps

Designers use vertical text for banners and sign mockups. Writers use it for poems, haikus and decorative signatures. Gamers and streamers use it in bios and chat. It is also a quick way to see how an interface handles tall, narrow content.

Notes

Vertical text here is made of ordinary line breaks, not a special font, so it is not rotated and does not change when you resize the window. Search engines and screen readers read it as many separate single-character lines, so keep it to short decorative phrases. For rotated or mirrored looks, try the Upside Down Text tool, and for styled letters use the Font Generator.
