Font Glitch, With Three Ways to Break a Letter

A glitch-text generator that uses Unicode combining marks to create copyable corrupted-looking text.

Landing page captured for the 2026-09-08 issue.

Field notes

The generator builds its effect by attaching Unicode combining marks to each visible character, rather than applying a downloadable font. Three controls divide the marks into above, through, and below zones; the site specifically warns that through-marks are more likely to become boxes on older devices. A live renderability badge estimates the trade-off, while previews are labeled for Instagram, Discord, and WhatsApp contexts.
