Unicode to Kruti Dev Converter

Runs entirely in your browser — nothing is uploaded. Long documents may contain rare glyphs; always proofread converted legal or official text.

Convert modern Unicode Hindi into Kruti Dev font text for legacy documents and DTP work.

Viewing the Kruti Dev result

The converted output is Kruti Dev font codes. It looks like random English letters until you paste it into Word or your DTP software and apply the Kruti Dev 010 font — then the Devanagari shapes appear. That is expected: Kruti Dev is a font encoding, not real Hindi characters.

Need the old Remington layout as a reference too? Open the Kruti Dev keyboard layout.

Frequently asked questions

Why would I convert Unicode Hindi to Kruti Dev?

Some government offices, courts, and print shops still require documents in Kruti Dev font. If you typed or received text in Unicode (the modern standard), converting it lets you paste it into those legacy Kruti Dev documents.

What do I need to view Kruti Dev text?

The Kruti Dev font (usually Kruti Dev 010) must be installed on the computer, and you must set the text to that font in Word or your DTP software. Without the font, converted text looks like random English characters — that is expected.
