Frequently asked questions

Why does it say Beta?
Every key was drawn from the Terafont Varun and LMG Arun 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.
Do Shruti or other Unicode Gujarati fonts need converting?
No. Shruti, Nirmala UI, Hind Vadodara and the other Unicode Gujarati fonts already hold real Gujarati text. If your text reads correctly on a phone, it is already Unicode.
A few characters came out as English letters. Why?
Some rare keys, mostly stacked and nasal conjuncts, have not been read with certainty yet. They are left as they are rather than guessed, so please check those spots by hand.
Is my text uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.

What Terafont text is

Terafont Varun and LMG Arun are the fonts most Gujarat offices, courts and presses typed in. Neither stores Gujarati. They store English keyboard characters and draw Gujarati letters on top of them, so on a computer without the font ગુજરાત shows up as U]HZFT. This page turns those characters into real Unicode Gujarati, which works on every phone, portal and computer.

What the conversion has to get right

  • The typewriter keyboard. Both fonts follow the old Gujarati typewriter, so the number keys are letters: 5 is પ and 0 is ડ. That is why this page has no "keep numbers" box.
  • ૨ and ૫ share keys with ર and પ. They look the same, so the typewriter never gave them keys of their own. The converter reads them as digits when they stand among digits: Z_Z$ is ૨૦૨૪, and 5Z is still the word પર.
  • The i-sign and the reph. િ is typed before its letter and the reph after its syllable, so SD"RFZL has to be reordered into કર્મચારી.
  • Vowels built on અ. આ, એ, ઓ and ઔ are typed as અ and the sign (VF is આ) and come out as the single Unicode letter.

It reads Terafont Varun, Ganesh, Indra, Kinnari, Parth, Suraj and Trilochan, and LMG Arun, Laxmi and Rupen in every style: one keyboard for all of them. For the other direction use Unicode to Terafont Varun. LMG Arun has three ready-made conjuncts of its own, and LMG Arun to Unicode reads those too.
