Quick reference for A-Z, a-z, and 0-9
Classic Wingdings is a font: ordinary character codes display as pictograms only when that font is applied. A web form cannot carry the font with copied plain text. This page therefore maps input to real Unicode symbols that survive copy and paste, while clearly treating them as approximations.
Each result is an assigned Unicode character such as a hand, star, circled number, or dingbat. The destination chooses its own font for that character, so shape and color may vary, but the symbol is not dependent on Wingdings being installed.
There is no universal rule saying that one Unicode star equals a particular Latin letter. The decoder follows this tool's one-to-one table. It cannot infer the original text behind arbitrary decorative symbols from another source.
Characters outside the mapping remain unchanged. This keeps accents, non-Latin scripts, and emoji visible instead of discarding them, but it also means a converted sentence can contain a mix of ordinary text and symbols.
The mapping is a visual substitution, not encryption. Anyone with the same chart can reverse it, and automated systems may still index or moderate the symbols. Do not rely on it to protect private information. Store the plain original beside any saved symbol version so future edits do not depend on decoding.
It produces copyable Unicode symbols that approximate familiar Wingdings-style glyphs. The original font uses glyphs in legacy character slots, so its exact appearance depends on having Wingdings installed.
It reliably reverses symbols produced by this page's own mapping. A symbol copied from another font, website, or emoji keyboard may have a different meaning and will remain unchanged.
The reference covers A-Z, a-z, 0-9, and common punctuation. Unsupported letters and symbols pass through unchanged so the converter does not silently delete part of the input.
Not always. Screen readers announce the Unicode symbol name rather than the letter you started with. Keep instructions, links, and essential information in plain text.
Microsoft released Wingdings as a dingbat font: each character position draws an icon instead of a conventional letter. Older documents can depend on the installed font to display those glyphs correctly.
On the modern web, Unicode symbols are more portable because the character itself represents the shape. This page's table prioritizes that portability and predictable round trips for text created here, not a perfect reproduction of every font glyph.
