Bengali Font Converter
Planned: a Bengali font converter for Bijoy and other legacy Bengali fonts to Unicode Bengali.
Coming soon
This converter is being built
Planned. Bijoy uses its own script and layout, and Bengali conjuncts are more elaborate than Devanagari ones. It needs its own map and its own tests.
There is deliberately no converter on this page yet. A converter that returns wrong Hindi is worse than one that is honest about not being ready, because you would have no way of knowing which letters it got wrong.
Use the Kruti Dev to Unicode converter in the meantime, or see all converters and their status.
Planned, not started
Bijoy is the legacy Bengali font most older documents were typed in, and the conversion problem is the same shape as the Hindi one: glyphs stored on ASCII codepoints, in visual rather than logical order.
The script is not. Bengali has its own character set and a more elaborate conjunct system than Devanagari, so it needs its own map and its own test documents. The route is scaffolded so the work has somewhere to go. It will be switched on only after a keyword check and a tested mapping.
