What Does a Kruti Dev to Unicode Converter Do?
A Kruti Dev to Unicode converter turns old Kruti Dev 010 text into standard Unicode Hindi. It does not translate or rewrite anything. Your words stay exactly the same; only the way the computer stores them changes.
Why does that matter? Kruti Dev text looks like Hindi only on a computer that has the Kruti Dev font. Everywhere else, it shows the English keys hiding underneath. Unicode Hindi, on the other hand, reads correctly on every phone, browser and app in the world.
| What you paste (Kruti Dev 010) | What you get (Unicode) |
|---|---|
| Hkkjr ,d fo’kky ns’k gSA | भारत एक विशाल देश है। |
| vkosnu i= | आवेदन पत्र |
| ftyk vf/kdkjh | जिला अधिकारी |
| U;k;ky; | न्यायालय |
| lwpuk dk vf/kdkj | सूचना का अधिकार |
Why Kruti Dev Text Breaks Outside Your Computer
See how Kruti Dev stores Hindi for a side-by-side example of the same text in both formats.
Here is the root of the problem. Kruti Dev 010 stores Hindi as ordinary English keys. For example, it saves भारत as “Hkkjr” and only draws it as Hindi when the Kruti Dev font is active. So the moment your text leaves your computer, it loses the font, and the reader sees “Hkkjr” instead.
That one design choice breaks Kruti Dev text in many everyday places:
- WhatsApp and Telegram: the receiver sees “Hkkjr ,d fo’kky ns’k gSA” instead of a sentence.
- Gmail and Outlook: emails turn into English gibberish on the other side.
- Websites and blogs: visitors without the font see nonsense, and Google cannot read the Hindi at all.
- eOffice and online portals: forms and notes that expect Unicode reject or garble the text.
- Google Docs: Kruti Dev is not available as a font there, so pasted text shows as English letters.
- Excel sorting: a Kruti Dev column sorts by the hidden English keys, so names come out in a meaningless order. After converting, the column sorts in proper Hindi order.
Converting to Unicode fixes every one of these at once.

Publishing Kruti Dev Text on a Website? Convert It First
This point deserves its own section, because it quietly ruins many Hindi websites. Search engines read the letters stored in a page, not the font that draws them. So if you publish Kruti Dev text, Google sees “Hkkjr ,d fo’kky ns’k gSA”, not “भारत एक विशाल देश है।”. As a result, the page cannot rank for any Hindi search, and visitors without the font see gibberish.
The fix takes a minute:
- Convert the article to Unicode here.
- Paste the Unicode text into your website editor, such as WordPress.
- Use a Hindi web font that supports Devanagari, or simply let the visitor’s device choose its own Hindi font.
