About This Tool

Convert modern Unicode Hindi text (Mangal font) to Devlys 010, Devlys 040, Kruti Dev, or Rajkaj encoding instantly. While Unicode is the web standard, many Indian government offices, typing exams (SSC, High Court, Rajasthan High Court), and print media still mandate legacy typewriter-style fonts.

Our Unicode to Devlys Converter supports all major variants — Devlys 010 (most common), Devlys 040 (Rajasthan government), Kruti Dev 010, and Rajkaj — with 100% accuracy for all matras and conjunct characters.

Unicode to Devlys 010 Converter (Mangal to Kruti Dev)

In the digital age, most of us type Hindi using **Unicode fonts** (like Mangal, Nirmala UI, or Google Input Tools). However, many **legacy systems, government offices, and print houses** still rely on **ASCII-based legacy fonts** like **Devlys 010** or **Kruti Dev 010**.

If you try to copy Unicode text directly into software that expects Devlys (like PageMaker, CorelDraw, or older government portals), you will see "garbage" characters. Our **Unicode to Devlys Converter** solves this by mapping each Unicode character to its corresponding key stroke in the Remington/Typewriter layout used by Devlys.

Why Convert Unicode to Devlys?

🏛️ Government Exams & Jobs

Many typing tests for **SSC (CGL, CHSL), High Court Clerks, Stenographers, and State PSCs** mandate the use of Devlys 010 or Kruti Dev 010 font. Candidates often practice in Unicode but need to submit or type in legacy formats.

🖨️ Print Media & DTP

Newspaper publishing and DTP (Desktop Publishing) works primarily on legacy fonts because they offer better control over typography in older software like **Adobe PageMaker and CorelDraw**.

How to Use Converted Text?

It looks like "Garbage" - Don't Panic!

When you convert to Devlys, the result might look like random English characters (e.g., Hkkjr for भारत). This is normal. To see the actual Hindi text:

  1. Copy the "garbage" text.
  2. Paste it into your Word Processor (MS Word).
  3. Select the text and **change the font to 'Devlys 010'**.
  4. The text will magically turn into correct Hindi.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

  • Reference Codes (Halant): Sometimes complex conjuncts (like 'ksha', 'tra') might break. Our tool uses an advanced mapping engine to handle 99% of these cases correctly.
  • Browser Display: You cannot read Devlys text in a web browser unless you have the font installed locally and the website specifies it. That's why we show the "code" view by default.
  • Mobile Support: This tool works on mobile, but you need an app that supports custom fonts (like WPS Office) to view the output correctly on your phone.
