LinkedIn Post Previewer

Format, preview, copy. Everything stays in your browser.

Copy puts the exact text on your clipboard. Paste it straight into the LinkedIn post box; the styling survives because it is real Unicode characters, not HTML.

How the fold is worked out, and one caution

LinkedIn cuts a post by lines, not characters: about 3 lines show before "see more", which is roughly 140 characters on a phone and 210 on desktop depending on word wrap and line breaks. This preview measures real wrapped lines at each width, so a short first line followed by a blank line uses up your fold fast.

Styled text is made of special Unicode letters. It looks right to people, but screen readers may read letters one by one and LinkedIn search will not match styled words. Use it for emphasis on a few words, not whole posts or your keywords.

Shortcuts: Ctrl/Cmd+B bold, I italic, U underline.

The LinkedIn post previewer that shows exactly where "see more" cuts

Write your post above and see it as it will look in the LinkedIn feed, on desktop and on a phone. The first lines decide whether people click, so the previewer shows the real "see more" cutoff and how many characters sit behind it.

LinkedIn text formatter: bold, italic and more

LinkedIn does not let you format post text. This LinkedIn text formatter swaps your letters for Unicode styles that look bold, italic, bold italic, monospace, script, underlined or struck through, and still paste straight into LinkedIn. Click the same button again to undo a style.

LinkedIn bold text generator, without a sign-up

Select a word, press B (or Ctrl/Cmd+B), then press Copy for LinkedIn. Use "Copy as plain text" if you want the styling removed.

What you can check before you post

Frequently asked questions

How do I make bold text on LinkedIn?

LinkedIn has no bold button for posts. Type your text here, select the words, click B, then copy and paste into LinkedIn. The bold comes from special Unicode characters, so it stays when you paste.

Where does LinkedIn cut off a post with see more?

LinkedIn shows about three lines before the see more link, which is roughly 140 characters on a phone and 210 on desktop. The exact point depends on word wrap and line breaks, so this previewer measures the real wrapped lines at each width.

What is the LinkedIn post character limit?

A LinkedIn post can be up to 3,000 characters. The counter above tracks it as you type.

Does bold text from a LinkedIn text formatter hurt accessibility or search?

It can. Screen readers may read styled letters one at a time, and LinkedIn search may not match styled words. Use styling for a few words of emphasis, not whole posts or your keywords.

Is my post or photo uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs in your browser. Your draft, name and photos are only saved on your own device so the tool remembers you.

Does it work on mobile?

Yes. You can edit on any device and switch the preview between a desktop feed card and a phone frame.
