Options

Word selection
Case folding combines supported case variants. Built-in and custom stop words can remove frequent terms before the displayed-word limit is applied.
Font and placement
Font sizes follow frequency within the entered limits. The finite placement search can leave words unplaced; inspect that report alongside the image.

Supported inputs and limits

Up to 50,000 input characters, 150 displayed words and 2,048 pixels per image side. Placement uses measured browser fonts and a bounded collision search; words that do not fit are reported. Frequency is not importance or sentiment. Layout can vary with installed fonts.

A cloud can omit a frequent word

A word may fail to fit even when its count is high. Font metrics and the chosen image dimensions affect placement, so the exported count table is better evidence of frequency than visual area alone. Word frequency does not establish meaning, importance or sentiment.

Questions about Word Cloud Generator

What controls a word’s size?

Its counted frequency and the selected font-size range. The page does not infer meaning or importance.

Why might a word be omitted?

A word may not fit within the bounded placement search or selected image size. The result reports omissions.

Does a stop-word choice alter the source text?

No. It only excludes selected words from counting for this output.
