How does this Devlys to Unicode converter work?
Paste your Devlys text
Open your document in Word or PageMaker, copy the Hindi text and paste it here. Even though it looks like random letters, the converter reads it correctly as Devlys encoding.
The engine maps each character
DevLys stores Hindi as ASCII codes. The converter reads each code, including sequences like ख ([k), घ (?k) and conjuncts like त्र (=) and ज्ञ (K), then maps them to Unicode Devanagari.
ि matra and reph are reordered
DevLys places the ि matra as "f" before its consonant and reph (Z) after the syllable. The converter detects both and reorders them into correct Unicode, which is where most basic tools fail.
Copy, download or share
The Unicode output works everywhere without any font. Copy to WhatsApp, paste into a government form, email it or download as a .DOC file ready for Word or Google Docs.
Why Use Our Devlys to Unicode Converter?
Most Devlys to Unicode tools handle simple characters but break on conjuncts, reph and the ि matra. This one gets them all right.
Krutidev 010 character map
DevLys 010 uses the Krutidev/Remington layout. The converter uses the verified DevLys 010 table so ज, conjuncts and matras all decode correctly.
ि matra and reph reordered
DevLys writes ि as "f" before its consonant and reph (Z) after the syllable. Both are detected and reordered into correct Unicode on conversion.
Works with DevLys 010 and 020
DevLys 010, 020 and Kruti Dev 010 share the same keyboard map. Select your variant in the toolbar and the conversion runs with the correct table applied.

Questions about Devlys to Unicode conversion
DevLys stores Hindi as ASCII codes. Without the DevLys font installed, you see letters like d, [k and fo for क, ख and विविध. For example, ज is stored as "t" in DevLys encoding. This converter reads those codes and replaces them with proper Unicode Devanagari characters that any device displays correctly without any font.
Devlys is a legacy font encoding where each Hindi character is mapped to an ASCII code. Without the Devlys font installed, text looks like random English letters. Unicode is a global standard where every Hindi character has a unique code point that every operating system understands natively, so no special font is ever needed. Converting to Unicode makes your Hindi content universally accessible.
Both are legacy Hindi fonts that encode Devanagari as ASCII, but they use different character maps. DevLys and Chanakya use different maps. DevLys shares the Krutidev layout where ज is "t". They also differ on several conjuncts and special characters. Text encoded for one font looks wrong when displayed in the other, which is why using the correct converter matters.
