Minecraft Font Generator

Minecraft font: the game uses its own blocky bitmap font (each letter drawn on a pixel grid); fans share copies as “Minecraftia”. Below: § colour-code builder, pixel title image maker and copyable styles.

Build coloured Minecraft text with § codes, see it rendered in a blocky pixel face, and copy Unicode styles for anvil names, signs and books.

Make a Minecraft-style title image

Your name can only change characters, but a thumbnail, banner or Discord server icon can use any font. This draws your text in a free look-alike typeface and saves a PNG. Jersey 10: a free pixel face with the same blocky feel.

Look

Unofficial look-alike, not the game’s own font or logo. Fonts: Anton, Black Ops One, Cinzel, Jersey 10 (SIL Open Font License).

Minecraft formatting codes

Put a colour code before a format code: §6§lGOLD works, but §l§6 loses the bold because every colour code resets formatting. In server.properties, write the section sign as \u00A7. Bedrock Edition uses the same codes on signs and in world names.

Where the Unicode styles work

Minecraft Java usernames only allow letters, digits and underscore, 3 to 16 characters, so styled names cannot become your account name. They do work on signs, in books, as anvil item names, in chat on most servers, and in server list MOTDs. Small caps are the favourite for server branding because Minecraft’s default font has pixel drawings for them; many other styles fall back to a smoother Unicode font and look out of place.

Questions players ask

What font does Minecraft use?
Minecraft’s interface uses its own bitmap font drawn on an 8×8-pixel grid per character, often shared as “Minecraftia” or “Minecraft Regular” by fans. The logo is a separate custom drawing.
How do I type the § symbol?
On Windows, hold Alt and type 0167 on the number pad. On a Mac, press Option+6. Or build the text above and copy it.
Why does my coloured text not work in chat?
Vanilla Minecraft strips § codes typed into chat. Servers enable coloured chat through plugins, usually with & instead of §.
Can I use this for a server MOTD?
Yes. Build it, then copy the escaped version into the motd= line of server.properties.
