LinkedIn Text Formatter

How to format a LinkedIn post

1. Write your post or paste a draft.
2. Select a few words to make them bold or italic. Select lines to turn them into a list.
3. Check the preview, then copy your post and paste it into LinkedIn.

You can write a new post here or paste a draft into this LinkedIn post formatter. Adjust the emphasis and layout, then copy the result.

Add bullet points to your LinkedIn post

Select the lines you want to turn into a list. Choose Bulleted list or Numbered list. Other lines stay as they are. The copied text keeps your line breaks and blank lines.

• Plan first
• Test with real text
• Review before publishing

Convert Markdown to LinkedIn text

A draft may arrive with markers such as **bold**, *italic*, or [link text](https://example.com). Choose Clean up Markdown to review the changes, then apply them. Undo restores the previous draft.

Cleanup handles supported emphasis, lists, and links. Code blocks, escaped markers, and unrecognized syntax stay in the draft for you to review.

LinkedIn post length

LinkedIn's published post limit is 3,000 characters. The length guide counts the output view you select, Formatted post or Plain text, in UTF-16 units. A visible letter or emoji can use more than one unit. LinkedIn may count differently. Check the pasted post before publishing. The guide never shortens your draft or prevents copying.

How the formatting works

Formatting runs in your browser. Bold and italic use Unicode letter styles that you can copy as text. Styles cover A–Z and a–z; Bold also covers 0–9. Accented letters, other alphabets, and emojis may stay unchanged.

Styled characters can be harder for screen readers to read. Use them for a few words of emphasis and keep the rest of the post readable. Copy plain text removes the styles you added here; it keeps list markers and characters that were already in your pasted draft.

Questions about LinkedIn text formatting

Can I make text bold or italic on LinkedIn?

Select text here and choose Bold, Italic, or Bold italic. Copy the result into LinkedIn and check how it looks on your device.

Will formatting change my links or hashtags?

The formatter keeps recognized web links such as https://example.com, www.example.com, and example.com unchanged. It also protects email addresses and hashtags, including when your selection covers only part of one. Words that look like web addresses, such as Node.js, also stay plain. The copied characters stay exactly as written; LinkedIn decides how they appear after pasting.

Can I remove the formatting?

Select text and choose Clear formatting to remove styles added here. Select whole lines to clear their list formatting, or Select all to clear all added formatting. Copy plain text removes added inline styles while keeping readable lists. Neither changes styled Unicode characters that were already in the text you pasted.

Does the tool save drafts?

The formatter does not save drafts. Copy important work before leaving the page.

Can I tag a person or company?

Add the mention in LinkedIn after pasting. Formatting plain text here does not create a LinkedIn mention.
