Frequently asked questions

Is this for every Chanakya font?
No. It writes code for one font, Abbasi Chanakya New (Jamal Abbasi, 2010). Other Chanakya fonts, such as Walkman Chanakya 905, put some letters on different keys, so this output will show the wrong letters in them.
The output looks like random English letters. Is that a bug?
No, that is what Abbasi Chanakya New text is. It only becomes Hindi once the font is applied to it. Paste it into Word, select it and set the font to Abbasi Chanakya New, or use the Download .docx button, which applies the font for you. Press Preview (Hindi) above the output to see it in the font here.
Why does it say Beta?
The mapping was built from the font file and every key was checked by eye, but it has not yet been compared with a real document typed in this font. Converting the output back with the Abbasi Chanakya to Unicode page returns your original text, but please check anything important.
Some characters were left as-is. Why?
This font has no key for them, for example ॐ or ऌ. They are left in the output unchanged and a note appears under the box. Hindi digits (०-९) become 0-9, because this font draws its digits in Latin form. A visarga (ः) becomes the : key, which looks the same in this font.
What happens to quotation marks?
Straight quotes become curly ones. In this font the ' and " keys are the letters श् and ष्, so a straight quote cannot be written as itself.
What happens to English words and numbers?
Numbers, dates, URLs and email addresses are left alone, the same as on the Unicode to Kruti Dev page. You can switch this off with the checkbox under the boxes.

What this converter does

Abbasi Chanakya New is a legacy Hindi font: it draws Hindi letters on ordinary keyboard characters. To use Unicode Hindi in a document set in that font, the text has to be turned into those characters and put back into the order the font types them in. Every short-i matra moves to the front of its consonant cluster (हिन्दी becomes fgUnh), and every reph moves to the end of its syllable (कर्म becomes deZ).

What to do with the output

  1. Press Copy Abbasi Chanakya code, or use Download .docx.
  2. Paste into Word or your DTP application.
  3. Select the pasted text and set the font to Abbasi Chanakya New. The .docx download does this for you.

To go the other way, use the Abbasi Chanakya to Unicode converter. If you need Kruti Dev instead, use Unicode to Kruti Dev.

A note on exact spellings

Some letters can be typed more than one way in this font (ध, for example, has three keys). The converter always picks one, so its output may not match text a person typed by hand character for character. It looks the same in the font, and converting it back returns the text you started with.
