LinkedIn text formatter

LinkedIn has no formatting buttons. The trick is Unicode: the standard contains separate bold and italic characters that look like styled text and survive pasting anywhere. That is what this tool produces.

In the feed LinkedIn shows roughly the first 200 characters, about three lines, before the see more link. The preview marks that fold, so put the line that earns the click above it.

Unicode only has styled variants for the plain letters A to Z and the digits. Letters like æ, ø and å keep their normal form, so a styled Norwegian word can look uneven. Style runs of plain text and leave the rest as it is.

No. Styled characters are not searchable, and screen readers spell many of them out one by one. Use bold for a few key lines and keep the body as normal text. Underline and strikethrough also double the character count, because they add an invisible combining mark to every letter.

That is the actual product. Native reads your website, writes LinkedIn posts in your voice and publishes them on schedule. Every post on our own feed is made this way.
