Questions

Frequently asked questions

How is this different from standard strikethrough formatting?

This tool uses a Unicode combining character, not formatting like an HTML tag. This allows the effect to be pasted into plain text fields.

Why does the strikethrough look broken on some letters?

The appearance can vary depending on the font and platform displaying the text. Some character combinations may not align perfectly.

Is the process secure?

Yes. Since the tool runs entirely on your computer, your text is never transmitted over the internet.

Background

A strikethrough that copies with the text

Enter text and see a Unicode strikethrough result immediately. The live counter tracks your input, and the combining effect is ready to copy in one tap.

  • The effect uses a Unicode combining character, not HTML formatting. This allows it to be pasted into most plain text fields.
  • Alignment depends on the destination font and platform. The original characters are kept, with the combining strike added to them.

Full specification

Specification of the Strikethrough Text Generator tool
What you typePlain text in one box. A character count sits underneath.
Style setThe strikethrough variants, listed under the box, each with its own Copy button.
How it's drawnA Unicode combining mark on each character, not a font. There is nothing to install.
Unmapped charactersMany digits, punctuation and every non-Latin script pass through unchanged.
Copy, not downloadThere is no download. Every result has its own Copy button beside it.
Where it runsIn your browser tab. The text you type never leaves your device.
SpacesThe mark is added to letters and digits only. Spaces are left alone, so words stay separate instead of running into one struck-through block.
Unmapped inputA style whose output matches what you typed is hidden rather than shown blank, so Chinese, digits or punctuation bring back fewer cards.
