FAQ

What is LetterPic?

A free photo to ASCII art converter. It turns your pictures into text art made of letters and symbols, which you can copy, share or save as a PNG.

Is it free?

Yes. No sign-up, no watermark.

Can I paste it into a chat?

COPY IMAGE pastes a picture anywhere images are accepted, and it always looks right. COPY TEXT copies the characters themselves; they only line up in a monospaced font, such as a code block, so most chat apps will scramble the shape. A smaller width helps.

Why is my result dark or empty?

Dark parts of a photo turn into spaces, so dark or low-contrast photos look empty. Open CUSTOMIZE and turn on INVERT to fill the dark areas instead. Inverted art usually looks best on a light BACKGROUND.
