How to Use Strikethrough Text Generator
- Type or paste the text that should appear struck through.
- Use the Unicode output when you need a copyable result for chats, bios, notes, or plain-text fields.
- Use the CSS preview to see how the same text would look with text-decoration in a web page.
- Copy the Unicode result only after checking that the target app displays combining marks correctly.
Formula & Theory - Strikethrough Text Generator
output = input.split("").map(char => char + U+0336).join("")
Unicode strikethrough is made with U+0336, a combining long stroke overlay. The mark is placed after each character, and the font renderer draws a line through the preceding glyph.
Spaces, punctuation, line breaks, and emoji are preserved. Some emoji or complex scripts may display the combining mark differently depending on the operating system and font.
The CSS preview is not copied as styling; it simply shows the visual effect a website would create with line-through decoration.
Use Cases for Strikethrough Text Generator
- Formatting playful edits or crossed-out jokes in messages.
- Creating social profile text that carries its own strike mark.
- Comparing Unicode text effects with CSS presentation.
- Annotating short snippets where plain text must show a deletion.
