Learning to format text in Character.ai can make your chat environments more immersive and interactive. This guide will break down how to use the platform’s essential text formatting commands, as well as introduce a handy text formatting tool.
If you’re not keen on manually entering Markdown formatting for bold, italicized, or strikethrough text, bullets and more, give the Character.AI Text Formatter tool a try. Enter the text you wish to format, choose your desired options, and copy your newly formatted text into your Character.AI chat. You can even include clickable links by checking the appropriate box and entering a URL.
For a more hands-on approach without the tool, there are a variety of formatting command options available. To make text bold, use double asterisks around words or phrases. To italicize, use single asterisks. Strikethrough text implies removal or correction and is achieved by wrapping tildes around your text. To highlight important text, wrap single backticks around your words, and if you want to underline, simply underscore your text. You can also create lists using numbers, asterisks, or hyphens.
Character.AI supports traditional punctuation and special Markdown constructs for additional formatting. Use square brackets and parentheses to link to external content. Also, you can nest blockquotes by adding additional “greater than” characters.
To add text formatting to your Character.AI characters, edit your character’s greeting or create a new one. Log into your Character.ai account and select the character you wish to update. Find “Character Profiles” in the menu and click on “Edit Character”. Now you can experiment with different formats in your character’s greeting. For new characters, we recommend checking our ultimate guide on using Character.ai. This will guide you on how to add text formatting to new greetings.
In conclusion, using Markdown text formatting not only beautifies your text but also makes it functionally superior and easier to comprehend. And remember, if you find manual formatting burdensome, make sure to take full advantage of our Character.ai text formatter tool. Happy chatting!
