Cross it out
Strikethrough Text Generator
Add a copyable line through text for edits, jokes, and before-and-after captions.
Conversion happens in this browser. Your text is not uploaded.
How it works
Cross out text in apps without formatting
The generator adds a combining stroke to each visible character. This creates copyable strikethrough text even in many fields that do not support rich-text formatting.
Because the line is a separate Unicode mark, its height and position can vary slightly between devices. Always preview the pasted result before posting.
How to use it
- Type the words you want to cross out.
- Review the generated line-through version.
- Copy and paste the result into your caption or message.
Make it work better
- Keep it short so the joke or edit remains easy to scan.
- Spaces are left untouched for cleaner word separation.
- Use plain text for information that must be accessible.
FAQ
Good to know
Why is the line uneven?
Fonts position combining marks differently, so the line can shift slightly between operating systems and apps.
Can I remove the strikethrough later?
Yes. Delete the combining marks or return to the original plain text and copy it again.
Does it work in Discord?
It can be pasted as Unicode text. Discord also supports its own Markdown strikethrough in message fields.
Is any text stored?
No. The transformation runs locally in your browser.
