AR1 Text Formatting

AR1 Text Formatting is a lightweight Fabric mod that allows using standard Minecraft formatting codes (§) in absolutely every text field: chat, books, signs, item names, GUIs, action bars, titles, and more. No more restrictions – customize your text freely.


Key Features

  • Full § Support – the formatting symbol is allowed in all text inputs.
  • All Standard Colors & Styles – 16 colors (§0§f), bold (§l), italic (§o), obfuscated (§k), and reset (§r).
  • Works Everywhere – chat, books (writable and written), signs, anvil‑renamed items, GUI elements, action bar, titles, and even some modded screens that use vanilla rendering.
  • No Configuration Needed – install and it works instantly.
  • Lightweight & Fast – does not affect game performance.

In any text field, type the § symbol followed by a formatting code. Below are all available codes and examples:

§a§kGreen Obfuscated Green s4@jun#"sf$&f0@/ text
§rReset §6after Normal text then gold
  1. Enjoy colorful and stylish text anywhere!

Note: The § symbol may require a special key combination (e.g., Alt+6 or Ctrl+Shift+6) depending on your keyboard layout. This mod removes the built‑in restriction, so once typed, it will work.

  • However, I recommend simply copying this symbol to the clipboard and pinning it there, that way, it will be easier to use. To open the clipboard in Windows, press [WIN+V].
