About this tool
Want your text to look like it just came off a 1950s typewriter? This generator wraps plain text in vintage typewriter style: monospace alignment, optional red-ribbon emphasis, ribbon switching, and a retro postage-stamp border.
Just type your text below, pick a style, and copy the result. The output is plain text plus a styled preview — it works anywhere monospace is supported (GitHub, terminals, blog code blocks).
How to use

- Choose red / black / two-color ribbon
- Optionally add a postage border or center alignment
- Click 'Copy' to grab the result
FAQ
Is the output an image?
No — the output is plain text with a styled preview. What you copy are real characters in monospace, editable anywhere.
Does it support Chinese?
Yes. Chinese characters render in a monospace serif fallback while Latin uses typewriter faces; mixed text stays aligned.
