How to Make Text Small Discord

Discord doesn't have built-in font size controls, but you can create smaller text using Unicode characters, online generators, and special formatting techniques.

✅ Quick Method: Use Unicode small caps or superscript characters to create visually smaller text in Discord messages.

🔤 Method 1: Unicode Small Caps

Small Caps Character Set

Normal: HELLO WORLD DISCORD

A = ᴀ    B = ʙ    C = ᴄ    D = ᴅ    E = ᴇ    F = ꜰ    G = ɢ
H = ʜ    I = ɪ    J = ᴊ    K = ᴋ    L = ʟ    M = ᴍ    N = ɴ
O = ᴏ    P = ᴘ    Q = Q    R = ʀ    S = ꜱ    T = ᴛ    U = ᴜ
V = ᴠ    W = ᴡ    X = x    Y = ʏ    Z = ᴢ

⬆️ Method 2: Superscript Characters

Superscript Letters

📝 Method 5: Code Block Formatting

Inline Code

While not technically smaller, inline code creates a different visual effect:

`This text appears in monospace font`

Result: This text appears in monospace font

Multi-line Code Blocks

```
This text appears in a 
monospace code block
with different styling
```

🎨 Creative Text Combinations

Mixing Styles

Small caps + bold: **ʙᴏʟᴅ ꜱᴍᴀʟʟ ᴄᴀᴘꜱ**

Superscript + italic: *ˢᵘᵖᵉʳˢᶜʳⁱᵖᵗ ⁱᵗᵃˡⁱᶜ*

Small caps + underline: __ᴜɴᴅᴇʀʟɪɴᴇᴅ ꜱᴍᴀʟʟ__

Small caps + strikethrough: ~~ꜱᴛʀɪᴋᴇᴛʜʀᴏᴜɢʜ ꜱᴍᴀʟʟ~~
