Blank Character
Creating Blank Text involves using a Blank Character, which represents an empty area. It occupies space but remains invisible, also known as the Whitespace/Empty or Invisible character.
To create invisible text, we use the Unicode Hangul Filler character. Unicode is a universal system that assigns a unique number to each character. These characters have many uses in various tools such as the Font Generator tool to stylize text.
Hangul Filler is classified as a letter, even though it appears as an empty space. This invisible character also works to send a Blank Message on WhatsApp. When pasted alone it appears as empty text.
Blank Text Generator
This Blank text generator tool lets you choose the number of invisible characters and generate that for you. You can generate any number of characters and afterward, you will be able to copy empty text.
