Why convert Kruti Dev to Unicode?

Kruti Dev is an old font: the letters are stored as English characters and only look Hindi when the font is installed. Copy such text into WhatsApp, a website or Google Docs and it turns into lines like fgUnh. Unicode stores the real Hindi letters, so it reads correctly everywhere and can be searched.

How to use it

  1. Copy the text from your Word or Excel file (it can look like English gibberish; that is fine).
  2. Paste it in the first box. The Unicode text appears in the second box.
  3. Tap Copy and paste it where you need it.

What the converter does

Besides swapping characters, it reorders two things Kruti Dev types in the wrong place: the short i matra (ि), typed before the letter, and the reph (र्), typed after it. fgUnh becomes हिन्दी and deZ becomes कर्म.

Questions people ask

Is Kruti Dev still used?
Yes, in many government offices and in typing tests that use the Remington layout, but Unicode is the standard for everything online.
Will the converter work for Kruti Dev 016 or other fonts?
It is built for Kruti Dev 010, the most common. Other Kruti Dev versions map most letters the same way, but check the result.
Is my text sent anywhere?
No. The conversion runs on your device.
