# \[PC\/Mobile\] How to Enlarge Message Text on Discord

When using Discord, there are plenty of times when you want to make a specific message stand out. In fact, on Discord you can enlarge text by using a format known as Markdown syntax.

In this article, we’ll explain in detail how to enlarge message text on both PC and mobile.

Note that if you want to change the text size for the entire app rather than individual messages, please refer to this article.

## How to Enlarge Message Text

On Discord, you can make the message font size larger by inserting `#` and a half-width space at the beginning of the line. This kind of format is called Markdown syntax, and it’s used by many web services.

With this feature, you can easily adjust text size. The size changes as you increase the number of `#` like this:

- `#`: The largest text
- `##`: The second largest text
- `###`: Slightly larger text

For example, type the following:

```markdown
# This is the largest text
## This is the second largest text
### This is slightly larger text
```

:::caution[Caution]
When enlarging text with Markdown syntax, it is important to remember to enter a **half-width space**.

If you use a full-width space or forget the space altogether, the text will not become larger and will be displayed as plain text.

```markdown
#This will not get larger
# This will get larger
```
:::

If you want to make text large across multiple lines, add `#` at the beginning of each line as follows.

```markdown
# This is the largest text
# This is also the largest text
```

:::note[Column]
In Markdown syntax, `#` originally denotes a heading.

Also, AIs such as ChatGPT that have been in the spotlight recently support the Markdown format, so when you put `#` and a half-width space at the beginning of a line, that portion of the prompt may be given emphasis.

## How Not to Enlarge Text with `#`

If you want to put `#` and a half-width space at the beginning of a line but not enlarge the text, use a backslash. For example, type the following:

```markdown
\# This is normal text
```

## Other Markdown Features

Discord’s Markdown syntax also offers various features such as links and emphasis.

For details on how to add links, see this article.
