Two legacy fonts, two layouts
DevLys 010 follows the Kruti Dev keyboard. Abbasi Chanakya New follows its own, and the two only partly agree. Change the font on a DevLys document and words with भ, प्र or सिं break, while everything around them looks fine.
So the page goes through Unicode. DevLys code is read as Hindi, with the short-i matra and the reph put back where they belong, and then the Hindi is typed out again with Abbasi Chanakya New keys, in the order that font draws them.
An example
iz/kkuea=h in DevLys is प्रधानमंत्री. In Abbasi Chanakya New the same word is ç/kkuea=h, because प्र has its own key there.
To go back, use Abbasi Chanakya to DevLys. For Unicode output, use DevLys to Unicode.
