DEVANAGARI DOCUMENT ENCODING CONVERTER

Welcome to Devenagari Document Encoding Converter

                 Computers understand only binary data. For representing   character, encoding comes in picture which represents every   character with unique number. There are many encodings which can   represents certain set of character and use their own encoding   standard. Hence there is problem that other encodings will identify   these characters according to their own encoding. Hence there is a   need for an encoding standard which can uniquely identify each   character in the world which is Unicode standard.
                Even though Unicode standard is widely acceptable over   Internet, there are many software for writing devanagari documnet,   which still do not support it. They use their own encoding standards.   With the use of such software many more Devanagari documents has   designed. Those documents are encoded using Non-Unicode standards. Those Non-Unicode documents are neither web searchable nor sortable   as web supports Unicode only. They are readable with only specific   fonts   and/or availability of particular software like shivaji font,   akruti   software respectively. Also they are not viewable on   those   operating systems which do not support those particular   Non- Unicode standards.
               Many documents which exist presently are   Non-Unicode.   Hence to cope up with above problems, those   Non-Unicode   documents would be converted to Unicode. There are software   available to do this work. But they are not open source and free.   Hence we have designed this open source free devanagari converter   for your convenience.
