# Unicode Font Variants | Shortcuts Library

> Transform a text into a similar string made with Unicode symbols that resemble different typefaces

## What this shortcut does

This shortcut transforms a text input into a similar string build with Unicode symbols that resemble different typefaces. They can be used to simulate having different fonts where only plain text is available.
By default it offers 15 font variants (which are easy to delete or add), and the final result is shown to the user before it can be copied. AFAIK it is the first such tool that does this while keeping diacritics.
