Common questions and answers about Unicode and Krutidev conversion

Last updated: 2025-02-04

General Questions

What is the difference between Unicode and Krutidev?

Unicode is a universal encoding standard that assigns unique numbers to characters from all languages, while Krutidev is a font-based encoding system specifically designed for Hindi text. Unicode is platform-independent and widely supported, whereas Krutidev requires specific fonts to display correctly.

Which format should I use for my project?

For modern web applications and cross-platform compatibility, we recommend using Unicode. Use Krutidev only if you need to work with legacy systems or specific publishing workflows that require Krutidev fonts.

Conversion Issues

Why does my text look incorrect after conversion?

Common reasons for display issues:

  • Missing required fonts (especially for Krutidev)
  • Incorrect input text format
  • Mixed encoding in source text
  • Browser or system encoding settings

Is there a limit to how much text I can convert?

Our online converter handles up to 10,000 characters per conversion. For larger texts, we recommend converting in smaller chunks or contacting us for bulk conversion solutions.

Technical Support

How do I install Krutidev fonts?

Please refer to our detailed Font Installation Guide for step-by-step instructions on installing Krutidev fonts on different operating systems.

Does the converter work offline?

Yes, once loaded, our converter works entirely in your browser without requiring an internet connection. All conversions are performed locally on your device.

Common Problems

Text appears as boxes or question marks

This usually means the required font is not installed. For Krutidev text, make sure you have installed the appropriate Krutidev font. For Unicode, ensure you have a Unicode-compatible Hindi font installed.

Characters are not converting correctly

Verify that your input text is in the correct format. Sometimes copying text from different sources can mix encodings. Try typing the text directly or ensure you're copying from a reliable source.
