Quick answer

Krutidev is a font that maps Hindi letters onto English keys, so its text is stored as English characters. To convert, paste the Krutidev text and the tool turns every glyph into Unicode Devanagari, moving the ि matra after its consonant and the reph (र्) before its syllable — for example “Hkkjr ljdkj” becomes भारत सरकार. Use the other direction to turn Unicode (Mangal) text into Krutidev.

Why convert to Unicode?

  • Unicode Hindi displays correctly on every phone, website and government portal — Krutidev only works where the font is installed.
  • Search engines and online forms read Unicode text; Krutidev text cannot be searched.
  • Typing tests for SSC and many states use Krutidev/Remington, so offices still need conversion both ways.
