Strikethrough styles
This Unicode strikethrough text generator crosses out ordinary letters using combining marks placed after each character, so fonts can draw a line through your words without deleting them. Use the style row above to switch between long stroke, slashthrough, Chandrabindu overlay, and tilde strike before you copy or save.
Slashthrough (v1)
Combining short solid overlay characters (U+0337, often applied twice for a bolder line) give a sharp slash-through effect—handy for crossed-out nicknames, captions, and chat where you want obvious strike styling in plain text.
Chandrabindu (v2)
Candrabindu (U+0310) plus a short stroke overlay (U+0335) stack after each glyph for a distinctive “moon and dot” look—another decorative way to make strike-through Unicode text stand out in bios and posts.
Tilde strike (v3)
The combining tilde overlay (U+0334) adds a wavy line across your string, a recognizable Unicode strikethrough variant when you want something different from a straight bar.
Copy & download

What Is a Strikethrough Text Generator?
A strikethrough text generator adds Unicode combining characters so your text looks crossed out (for example S̶t̶r̶i̶k̶e̶t̶h̶r̶o̶u̶g̶h̶) without deleting the original letters. It is useful for edits, humor, or emphasis where plain strikethrough formatting is not available.
How to strike through text
- Type or paste your text in the top box.
- Choose a style with the buttons above the fields.
- Copy or Download as .txt from the output box.
You can use the result in many places that support Unicode, including social posts and messaging apps—rendering depends on the platform font.
FAQs
What is strikethrough text? Text with a horizontal line through it, often used to show deletion or a change of mind while keeping the original visible.
Why use it? Common uses include marking replaced info, showing edits, sarcasm, eye-catching headings, or quick “redacted” jokes.
Is there a length limit? There is no fixed limit in this tool; very long pastes may be slower to process in the browser.
Any language? Combining marks follow your typed characters; rendering quality depends on font and script support.
Email? Many clients support rich strikethrough; plain-text Unicode strikethrough may vary by client and device.
About this tool
This page is a single Unicode strikethrough generator: pick a style in the row above, type or paste in the top field, and read the crossed-out result below. It offers four looks—long stroke, slashthrough, Chandrabindu overlay, and tilde strike—using combining characters after each code point so emoji and long characters stay intact where browsers support these marks.
Use Copy or Download as .txt when you are happy with the output. Character, word, and line counts always reflect your input text, not the decorated output. Everything runs locally in your browser; we do not upload or store what you type on our servers.
