An online tool for quickly generating lists from 1 to 2020 in Roman numerals.

Ideal for numbering documents, books, event schedules, and other lists with classical Roman numerals. Supports vertical or horizontal display, custom delimiters, and symbol enclosures.

How to create a 1–2020 Roman-numeral list

The range 1–2020 is inserted automatically. Next, complete four steps:

  • Format: choose “Column” or “Row”.
  • Delimiter: comma, period, dash, space, “/”, “|”, “comma + space”, “period + space”, or a custom symbol.
  • Preview: the result appears instantly in the preview block.
  • Copy: click “Generate”, then “Copy” — the list is now in your clipboard.

Additional settings

Step (interval): enter an integer, e.g. 3 → III, VI, IX… or 10 → X, XX, XXX….

I, IV, VII, X, XIII, XVI, XIX, XXII, XXV, XXVIII

Enclosure: add characters before and after each numeral (brackets, quotes, etc.).

(I), (II), (III), (IV), (V)

Delimiters

No delimiter produces a vertical list. To set your own, select “Custom”.
