Text goes in. Text cards come out.

Not just Markdown out of a chat window — any text you can select and copy. The studio at the top of this page is the whole product; there is nothing to install and nothing to sign.

  • A ChatGPT or Claude answer
  • Meeting notes
  • A book highlight
  • A changelog
  • A recipe
  • Lecture notes
  • A poem
  • A definition
  • A .md or .txt file
  1. 1

    Paste or drop your text

    Anything you can select and copy. Plain paragraphs work; Markdown gets rendered. You can also drag a .md or .txt file straight onto the box.

  2. 2

    Pick a style, a font and a size

    Click a text card style on the left, set the typeface and the alignment right above it, then choose an aspect ratio. The preview redraws immediately — there is nothing to apply or confirm.

  3. 3

    Download the set

    Copy one card to the clipboard, save a single card, or take the whole set as a numbered ZIP. PNG, JPG, WebP or PDF.

The TextCard studio: the font picker, alignment buttons and a grouped list of text card styles on the left, the text input at the top right, and the card preview below it.
The studio, mid-edit. Left: 66 styles in 8 groups. Right: your text, the live text card preview, and one thumbnail per card.

66 text card styles, and not one of them looks like a screenshot

A legal pad. An iOS note. A terminal window. Parchment, a wanted poster, a comic panel, a certificate. Pick one and the entire set takes it — every text card in the set stays consistent, including the ones you have not scrolled to yet.

Grouped as Screens · Paper · Print · Relic · Poster · Gradient · Texture · Solid — so finding a look takes a few seconds instead of a scroll past forty swatches.

Set the type, too. Search the whole Google Fonts library from the style panel and align the text left, centred or right. Change either one and every text card in the set re-typesets — not just the one on screen.

Layout engine

Long text becomes a set of cards, not one unreadable image

Every line is measured with the real font at the real size before anything is drawn, so a break never lands mid-word or halfway through a list item. Paste an entire article and you get a carousel, in order, first try.

  • Breaks land at headings and paragraph ends, the way a person would put them
  • Bold, italics, lists, blockquotes and fenced code all render — nothing turns into stray asterisks
  • Thumbnails under the preview show how many text cards you got; click one to jump to it
  • Keep typing and the whole set repaginates as you go
A long article split into seven text cards. The first card fills the preview and a strip of seven numbered thumbnails runs along the bottom.
One 1,400-character post, split into seven text cards without a single break landing mid-sentence.

One text card, 8 sizes

Switch the ratio and the text re-flows for the new shape. It is not a crop, so nothing gets clipped off the bottom and nothing needs re-typing.

Text card FAQ

What people ask before they paste the first thing in.

What is a text card?

A text card is a readable image of a piece of writing — a quote, a note, an answer, a definition — typeset at a size that survives a social feed. TextCard turns text into image cards so the words stay legible instead of being squeezed into a screenshot.

Do I need an account?

No. Paste text, download cards. There is no sign-up, no email step and no trial to start.

Is it free, and is there a watermark?

It is free, and exported text cards carry no watermark, no logo and no badge. There is also no cap on how many you make.

Does my text get uploaded anywhere?

No. Every text card is drawn in your own browser with Canvas. The text you paste never leaves your device, so drafts and private notes stay private.

What kind of text can I paste in?

Any text. Plain paragraphs work fine. Markdown gets rendered — headings, bold, italics, lists, blockquotes and fenced code blocks. You can also drag in a .md or .txt file, or drop one onto the input box.

Can I change the font and the alignment?

Yes. The style panel has a font picker that searches the entire Google Fonts library, plus left, centre and right alignment. Both apply to the whole set, so a four-card carousel stays typographically consistent.

How long can the text be?

Longer than one card. Anything that overflows is split into a set, and the thumbnail strip under the preview shows exactly how many text cards you ended up with. A long article simply makes more cards.

What sizes can I export?

Eight aspect ratios: 4:5, 3:4, 2:3 and 9:16 for portrait, 1:1 for square, and 16:9, 3:2 and 1.91:1 for landscape and link previews. Changing the ratio re-flows the text — it is not a crop.

Which file formats can I download?

PNG, JPG, WebP and PDF. Single cards also copy to the clipboard as PNG, and the full set downloads as a ZIP.

Can I use the text cards commercially?

Yes. The cards are yours — post them, schedule them, sell them, put them in a deck. No attribution required.

Does it work on a phone?

Yes. On a narrow screen the studio stacks input, then the style list, then the preview, and the export controls sit next to the thing they act on.

Your text is one paste away from a card set

The text card studio is at the top of this page. Paste something, click a style, download the set — about fifteen seconds, start to finish.
