Frequently Asked Questions

How do I convert Kruti Dev text to Unicode?

Paste your Kruti Dev text into the left panel and select the matching font variant from the dropdown. The Unicode output appears instantly on the right. Click "Copy Unicode" or download it as a .txt file. No signup or installation needed.

The converted output looks garbled — what should I do?

If the output has incorrect characters, the wrong font variant is selected. Try switching between Kruti Dev 010, Chanakya, and Devlys until the output looks correct. Kruti Dev 010 is the right choice for most government and newspaper documents.

What is the difference between Kruti Dev and Unicode?

Kruti Dev is a legacy font-based encoding — it stores plain ASCII bytes and relies on the Kruti Dev font to display them as Hindi. If the font is not installed, text appears as random English characters. Unicode is the international standard: the actual Devanagari characters are stored in the file, so they display correctly on every device and app with no font required.

Will Unicode text work on WhatsApp and mobile phones?

Yes. Unicode Devanagari works on every modern device and application — WhatsApp, Facebook, Gmail, MS Word, Google Docs — without any font installation. This is the main reason to convert: your Hindi text becomes universally portable.

Can I convert Unicode back to Kruti Dev?

Yes. Click the "Unicode → KD" button in the direction toggle to reverse the conversion. This is useful when working with legacy software that still requires Kruti Dev encoding — such as some older court or government portals.

Is this tool completely free? Any hidden charges?

Completely free. No account required, no usage limits, and no hidden fees. The conversion runs entirely inside your browser — your text is never sent to our servers.
