U+FF21
Ａ (U+FF21) is a fullwidth form of the Latin capital letter A. It looks similar to “A” but is encoded differently, which can matter for typography and alignment. Use the copy options below or the provided escape codes in code and markup.
Fullwidth Latin Capital Letter A Letter Meaning
Ａ is the Unicode “FULLWIDTH LATIN CAPITAL LETTER A” (code point U+FF21). Fullwidth characters are designed to occupy more horizontal space than standard ASCII letters. In practice, Ａ is commonly used in East Asian typography contexts, in UI designs where consistent character width is needed, and in text that must match a fullwidth style set (for example, some legacy or compatibility layouts). Because it’s a different character than the regular “A” (U+0041), it may not compare equally in searches or string matching and can affect sorting and validation.
Common uses
- •UI/typography: keep fullwidth text blocks aligned with other fullwidth characters
- •Design systems: match a consistent fullwidth character style in headings or labels
- •Legacy compatibility: reproduce text that was created using fullwidth forms
- •Social posts/graphics: create a stylized fullwidth look for emphasis or branding
- •Developer use: include the exact Unicode character when formatting or rendering fullwidth text
