Features
Vertical Chinese Text Generator is a free in-browser layout tool for Xiaohongshu creators, classical-Chinese poster designers, Hanfu photographers, guofeng cultural-goods makers, and calligraphy enthusiasts. Paste horizontal Chinese text (classical poetry, song lyrics, quotations, product titles, verses), choose vertical direction (right-to-left traditional / left-to-right modern), column dividers, punctuation position (trailing / cell-top), line spacing, number of columns, and whether to keep English / digits in horizontal mixed-layout (half-width chars auto-rotated 90°). The tool instantly renders copyable vertical rich text / image / SVG to paste straight into Xiaohongshu notes, ancient-style poster PSDs, Hanfu shoot captions, or guofeng cultural materials — no more laying out each character by hand column-by-column in Photoshop.
When You Need This
Common pain points this tool solves
- A Xiaohongshu blogger posts a Dragon Boat poetry + Hanfu photoshoot guofeng note. Pastes a 4-line, 28-character seven-character quatrain, picks 'right-to-left 4 columns + dashed column dividers + regular script font + light vermilion text color', exports a 3:4 vertical image as cover — cover clicks were 2× higher than plain horizontal copy
- A guofeng cultural-goods designer drafts 10 round-fan inscriptions for an offline craft market, 7–14 characters each. Runs the Vertical Generator once to produce 10 SVG vector files, drops them into Illustrator / Photoshop to tweak weight and color for final artwork — saves 3 hours of manual layout work
- A Hanfu photographer's client wants a classical caption & seal on finished photos. Pastes the client's 16-character quotation, picks right-to-left 2 columns + thin Song font + seal-stamp placeholder, exports PNG and layers it onto the photo corner — delivered straight to the client, no need to fiddle with vertical direction in Photoshop.
How to Use
Step-by-step instructions
- Paste horizontal text into the input: classical poems, quotes, modern prose, mixed Chinese-English phrases, numeric dates. Punctuation, emoji, spaces, and line breaks all preserve.
- Pick layout parameters: vertical direction (right-to-left ancient tradition / left-to-right modern reading order), max characters per column (column count auto-calculated), column spacing, line spacing, column dividers (solid / dashed / none), font (Kai / Song / Hei / custom system fonts), text and background colors, border / padding.
- Toggle mixed-layout rules: whether to auto-rotate English & Arabic numerals 90° for horizontal display (ancient-book standard), whether punctuation sits in the top-right of a character cell (trailing to a line) or bottom-left in its own cell, how half-width numeric dates occupy cells.
- Choose export format: Copy Rich Text (pastes directly into Xiaohongshu / WeChat editors, preserving vertical direction and columns), export PNG with transparent background / JPG with background / SVG vector (ideal for further editing in PS / Illustrator), or pick preset sizes: 3:4 Xiaohongshu cover / 1:1 Moments square / 9:16 phone wallpaper.
Why Choose Korelyy
What makes us better
- True vertical layout, not just a CSS rotation: every character occupies its real grid cell aligned along the column direction per Unicode vertical-properties. 90° rotated English & digits follow real mixed-layout conventions, not the fake vertical of rotating a whole horizontal block 90° forcing people to tilt their heads.
- All common poster / note size presets included: Xiaohongshu 3:4 vertical cover, Moments 1:1 square, the popular 4:5 aspect ratio for Hanfu photoshoots, 9:16 phone wallpaper — no need to look up dimensions and create a new canvas manually.
- 100% browser-local rendering, zero upload. Client-confidential classical slogans, commercial poster copy, copyrighted poetry layouts all paste safely. SVG / PNG exports are generated entirely locally via Canvas + SVG in the browser, no backend storage whatsoever.
