How to use

  1. Type or paste the Hindi that has to go into a Arjun document.
  2. Press Copy Arjun code.
  3. Paste into Word and set the font to Arjun, or use Download .docx, which sets it for you.

Good to know

  • In this font a colon after a word is typed with the visarga key, because the colon key draws रू here. Pasted into a program without the font, it shows as a percent sign.
  • This font has no key for these letters and signs: ङ ऽ. They are left unchanged and flagged under the output box, and Word draws them in another font.

How Arjun compares with Kruti Dev

Arjun types 150 of the 152 keys of Kruti Dev the same way. Keys with a different letter: 1. Keys only Arjun has: 23. 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 Arjun 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.
The output looks like English letters. Is that right?
Yes. That is Arjun code. Press Preview (Hindi) to see it in the Arjun font here, or set the font to Arjun in Word.
Some characters were left as they were. Why?
Arjun has no key for a few characters, such as ऍ. They are left unchanged and a note appears under the output box.
Is my text uploaded?
No. The conversion runs in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.

When you need Arjun

Hindi typed on a phone or copied from a website is Unicode. Pasted into a document set in Arjun, it shows the wrong letters. This page writes it out again as the keys Arjun expects, in the order the font draws them: भारत becomes Hkkjr.

The Arjun keys it uses

  • = is half त्र. i=k is पत्र, where Kruti Dev types i=. A Kruti Dev converter turns every त्र in Arjun text into त्रा.
  • Hindi digits on the Alt-code keys. The number keys stay 0 to 9, and ० to ९ sit in the upper range of the font.
  • Signs of its own. ॐ, ॠ and ऌ have keys, and ि with a reph is one key.

To go back, use Arjun to Unicode. For a document set in Kruti Dev, use Unicode to Kruti Dev instead.
