Old Bijoy documents only display correctly when the Bijoy font is installed, so on most modern devices they look like a jumble of Latin characters.
Paste that Bijoy text here to get Unicode Bangla, which displays correctly anywhere without the legacy font.
How to use Bijoy to Unicode Converter
- Paste your Bijoy ANSI Bangla text into the left panel.
- The Unicode Bangla appears in the right panel, with vowel signs reordered.
- Copy the Unicode text and use it without a special font.
Use cases
- Modernize old Bijoy documents and articles.
- Migrate Bijoy content to a website.
- Make Bangla text display on phones without the Bijoy font.
Good to know
Bijoy maps Bangla glyphs onto ANSI character positions, so the bytes are really Latin letters that only look Bangla in the Bijoy font. Unicode stores actual Bangla characters instead, which is why the output is portable.
Frequently asked questions
What is Bijoy text?
Bijoy is a legacy ANSI layout and encoding for Bangla. It needs the Bijoy font to display, while Unicode Bangla works without it.
Does it handle conjuncts?
Yes. It reorders vowel signs and handles common conjuncts so the Unicode output reads correctly; spot-check unusual clusters.
Is it free to use?
Yes. No account is required, though very large pasted text may depend on your browser and device.
