Good to know

Mangal is a Unicode Devanagari font, not a separate encoding, so converting from Mangal means converting from Unicode. The Kruti Dev output looks like Latin characters until a Kruti Dev font is applied.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mangal a separate encoding?

No. Mangal is a Unicode font, so text typed in it is standard Unicode Hindi; this page converts that Unicode into Kruti Dev.

Why does the output look like Latin?

Kruti Dev maps Devanagari onto Latin positions, so it only looks Hindi once a Kruti Dev font is applied.

Which Kruti Dev does it target?

It targets common Kruti Dev mappings such as Kruti Dev 010; spot-check unusual conjuncts after converting.
