Pinterest fonts, without losing search.

Pinterest works like a search engine: people type what they want and Pins are matched by their words. That makes fancy text a trade-off. It is fine for your profile About and as decoration, but Pin titles and board names should keep their keywords in plain letters.

Counted the strict way: many fancy letters are stored as 2 characters, so if it fits here, it fits in the app.

Back to plain text

Paste fancy text (cursive, bold, glitch, upside down, bubbles) to get normal letters back, for example to make it searchable or readable.

What works on Pinterest

  • Profile About, board names, Pin titles and descriptions accept fancy letters on the app and the website.
  • Frames around a plain keyword (✿ cozy bedroom ideas ✿) keep the keyword searchable and still look styled.
  • Cursive and small caps suit lifestyle and wedding boards.

Known problems

  • Pinterest search does not match fancy letters. A Pin title or board name in fancy letters loses its search traffic. Put decoration around plain keywords instead.
  • Glitch text is clipped in Pin previews.

Tips for Pinterest

  • Decorate around keywords, never instead of them: ✿ wedding ideas ✿ is searchable, 𝓌𝑒𝒹𝒹𝒾𝓃𝑔 is not.
  • Use fancy text freely in your About, where search matters less.
  • Write Pin descriptions in plain sentences with the words people search for.

Frequently asked questions

Can I use fancy fonts on Pinterest?

Yes, in your profile, board names, Pin titles and descriptions. But Pinterest search does not read fancy letters, so keep keywords plain and use symbols around them for style.

Do fancy fonts hurt Pinterest SEO?

Yes, for the words you style. Search matches plain words. A board called 𝓌𝑒𝒹𝒹𝒾𝓃𝑔 𝒾𝒹𝑒𝒶𝓈 is invisible to people searching 'wedding ideas'.

How long can a Pin title be?

100 characters. Fancy letters can count as two each, and Pinterest search does not read them, so keep the keywords of the title plain and decorate around them.

What is the best Pinterest font style?

A frame style around plain words, like ✿ cozy home ✿ or 『 recipes 』. It looks styled and keeps search working.

Can I change the font of text on my Pin image?

That is the image itself; design it in your editor. This tool is for the text fields.
