Converting a full document or spreadsheet? Upload the Word or Excel file, formatting stays.

Convert a document

Upload a Word (.docx), Excel (.xlsx, .csv) or text (.txt) file typed in Akshar. Only the Akshar text is converted. Bold, colours, tables, numbers, formulas and the rest of the formatting stay exactly as they are.

Your file never leaves your computer.

How to use

  1. Copy the text out of your Akshar document. It may show as English letters, which is fine.
  2. Paste it into the Akshar box. Unicode Nepali appears on the right. For a whole Word file with its bold, italic and tables, use Upload Word file instead.
  3. Press Copy text and paste the converted Akshar text where it is needed. In Word, set it in a Unicode font such as Kalimati or Mangal.

Tip:Lines with हृदय are the quickest check: Akshar types it as ›bo, and the right-hand box should show हृदय.

How Akshar compares with Preeti

Akshar types 130 of the 190 keys of Preeti the same way. Keys with a different letter: 33. Keys only Akshar has: 14. That is why many documents convert alike in both, and why the keys below are worth knowing. All of it is read from the same key maps the converter uses.

Frequently asked questions

Why does it say Beta?
Every key was drawn from the Akshar font file and read by eye, and converted sentences were drawn back in the font itself to check they read correctly. It has not yet been run on a real office document, so please read anything important before you rely on it.
Can I use a Himalaya converter instead?
Most keys are the same, but not the ones listed above, and a Himalaya converter gets exactly those letters wrong. This page reads them the way Akshar draws them.
What happens to English words and numbers?
Numbers are converted too: in Akshar the number keys draw Nepali letters or digits, so there is nothing to keep as it is. Web and email addresses are always kept.
Is my text uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.

What Akshar text is

Akshar is a Nepali font typed on the Himalaya keyboard. Like Himalaya, it stores Nepali as keyboard characters, so on a computer without the font नेपाल shows up as g]kfn. This page turns those characters into real Unicode Nepali, which works everywhere.

How Akshar differs from Himalaya

  • Himalaya's keyboard. The number keys are digits (2081 is २०८१) and Preeti's letters from that row are on the shifted keys.
  • फ on F, झ on X, ँ on ~. Himalaya has ा and हृ on the first two, and ँ on ¤.
  • Punctuation on the upper keys. Brackets and signs that the letter keys took have new places in the upper range.

Akshar Normal and Akshar Bold were drawn and checked. Akshar Unicode is already Unicode and needs no converting. For the other direction use Unicode to Akshar. For text typed in Himalaya itself, use Himalaya to Unicode.
