1. Quick Copy: All Invisible Characters

Click any button to copy that specific blank character to your clipboard:

Hangul Filler (U+3164)

Best for WhatsApp empty messages, Discord blank names, Instagram bio breaks.

Braille Pattern Blank (U+2800)

Bypasses strict website username validation where Korean characters are blocked.

Zero-Width Space (U+200B)

Completely invisible with 0px width. Used for soft line breaks and hidden watermarks.

Non-Breaking Space / NBSP (U+00A0)

Standard space that prevents words from wrapping onto a new line (Alt+0160).

2. Windows Alt Code for Non-Breaking Space

On Windows computers with a numeric keypad:

Hold down the Alt key and type 0160 (or 255) on the numeric keypad, then release Alt.

This inserts an NBSP (Non-Breaking Space). In Microsoft Word, you can also press Ctrl + Shift + Space.

3. Mac Shortcut for Non-Breaking Space

On macOS, press Option + Space.

This outputs a non-breaking space (U+00A0) that keeps currency symbols glued to their numbers (e.g., $ 100) or prevents units from breaking across page margins.
