How to use bold and stylish text on Facebook
Standard Facebook timeline posts, mobile comments and profile bios do not offer a formatting toolbar for bold or italic text. By converting your words into Unicode characters here, you can paste bold headlines, italic quotes or cursive signatures directly into status updates, group discussions, page announcements and your profile Intro.
Formatting tips for Facebook posts and groups
In busy Facebook feeds and groups, a short bold headline on the first line helps readers see what your post is about before tapping 'See more':
โข Post Headline: ๐ข ๐ช๐ฒ๐ฒ๐ธ๐ฒ๐ป๐ฑ ๐๐๐ฒ๐ป๐ ๐จ๐ฝ๐ฑ๐ฎ๐๐ฒ
โข Profile Intro (101 chars): ๐๐ข๐ฎ๐ช๐ญ๐บ, ๐ค๐ฐ๐ง๐ง๐ฆ๐ฆ & ๐ต๐ณ๐ข๐ท๐ฆ๐ญ โ๏ธ ยท Living one day at a time.
