Tumblr fields that accept styled letters
Tumblr posts accept Unicode symbols, so styled letters paste into text blocks, captions and your blog description and keep their look. Fraktur and script styles suit headings and moodboards; small caps make tidy labels.
How styled letters count on Tumblr
Length is rarely the issue on Tumblr: a text block holds 4,096 characters and a whole post 524,288. Tags are where styling backfires. Since March 19, 2024, the first 30 tags on a new post are indexed for site search, and a styled tag won’t match the plain tag people browse, so keep tags plain.
Keep it readable for everyone
Screen readers may read styled letters as math symbols or skip them. Use styled text for headings and decoration, write the body of the post in plain text, and describe your images in words for readers who can’t see them.
Ideas for Tumblr
- A fraktur heading for a themed post.
- Small caps for section labels in a long text post.
- A styled blog description that matches your theme.
