Pinterest fields that accept styled letters
Pinterest runs on search, which changes how you should use styled text. Your bio (500 characters) and Pin descriptions (800) accept Unicode symbols, so a styled word or label works there.
Pin titles are different. They can be up to 100 characters, the first 40 may be all that shows, and they’re where your keywords belong, so keep titles plain.
How styled letters count on Pinterest
Styled letters count toward the 800-character description and the 100-character title like any other characters. Some apps count each styled letter as two because of how the symbols are stored, so leave a little room near the limit.
Keep it readable for everyone
Screen readers read descriptions aloud, and styled letters may come out as symbol names or not at all. Use styling for a label or two, and write alt text (up to 500 characters) in plain language.
Ideas for Pinterest
- A script word in your bio for personality.
- A bold label like “Ingredients” or “Steps” in a Pin description.
- Plain keywords in every title, with styled extras only in the description.
