Strikethrough Font Generator — Copy & Paste

This page focuses on one style — Strikethrough — and explains what it is, where it works, and where it breaks.

Device support: Excellent — works as plain text everywhere

About the Strikethrough Style

Strikethrough works differently from every other style here. Rather than substituting different letters, it inserts a combining long stroke overlay (U+0336) after each character. Your original letters are unchanged — an invisible mark is layered on top of each one.

That has a useful consequence: strikethrough text stays searchable. Copy it into a document, run a find for the plain word, and it still matches, because the underlying letters really are the letters. No other style on this site does that.

It also means the effect stacks with anything. You can apply strikethrough to cursive, to bold, to bubble text. The generator offers a few of those combinations directly.

The one caveat is rendering. Because the stroke is a separate character positioned over the base, narrow text fields sometimes draw it offset by a pixel or two, and a few platforms break the line at each character boundary rather than drawing it continuously. It is cosmetic, but visible if you look for it.
