I almost didn't post this. LinkedIn shows about three lines before "â€Ļ more". Everything after that has to earn the click. So put the hook first: â€ĸ say the result â€ĸ skip the warm-up â€ĸ make line 3 a reason to keep reading Paste your draft here and watch where the fold lands.

The whole post shows without "â€Ļ more".

Why LinkedIn has no font menu

Every post, comment and profile on LinkedIn is shown in LinkedIn's own typeface, and the post box has no font or size setting. The "fonts" in other people's posts are characters from Unicode's Mathematical Alphanumeric Symbols block: letters made for maths formulas that happen to look bold, italic or handwritten. LinkedIn treats them as text like any other, so they keep their look wherever the post is read.

Underline and strikethrough work differently from the rest: instead of swapping letters, they add a combining line after each character, so they also work on accented letters and on other alphabets.

Choosing a style that still reads well

Bold and italic are the safe pair: they sit close to LinkedIn's own text and most readers take them in without noticing. Serif bold gives a classic headline look. Script and monospace are louder: script gets hard to read after a few words, and monospace reads as code, which suits a command or a product name. One or two styles per post is plenty.

Before you style a whole post

To software these aren't ordinary letters. Screen readers may spell them out or call them maths symbols, LinkedIn search and Google may not match a styled word to the plain one, and some older devices show empty boxes for the rarer styles. Keep the body of the post plain, leave names, hashtags and links unstyled, and use styles to guide the eye rather than to decorate every line.

Questions

Can I change the font on LinkedIn?

No. LinkedIn shows all text in its own font and has no font setting for posts. What you can do is use Unicode characters that look bold, italic, script or monospace, which LinkedIn displays like any other text.

Why don't my numbers change in italic or script?

Unicode has bold, serif bold and monospace versions of the digits 0 to 9, but no italic, bold italic or script ones. Postfold leaves numbers plain in those styles rather than swapping in digits that don't match.

Where can I use these fonts?

The styled text is plain Unicode, so it pastes anywhere LinkedIn accepts text. Copy and paste is all it takes.
