How the Bamini → Unicode conversion works
Bamini uses an older, font-specific encoding where Latin keys such as m, ;, and f are mapped to Tamil glyphs. This converter replaces those Bamini keystrokes with modern Unicode Tamil characters directly in your browser, so the same text becomes readable on any device or website.
How to use the Bamini to Unicode converter
- Copy your original Bamini text from Word, email, PDF, or another document.
- Paste it into the left box labelled Input (Bamini font text).
- Check the right box to see the Unicode Tamil text update in real time.
- Use Copy output to move the converted text into your website, blog, or design tools.
Why convert Bamini to Unicode?
- SEO friendly: Search engines can read and index Unicode Tamil, but not legacy Bamini glyphs.
- Cross-platform: Unicode works on mobiles, tablets, and desktops without special font installs.
- Reliable sharing: Unicode Tamil appears correctly in social media, email, and messaging apps.
- Future-proof: Unicode is the long-term standard for Tamil text on the web.
Tips for clean conversions
- Convert paragraph by paragraph if your document is very long, then proofread once in Unicode.
- Avoid mixing different legacy Tamil fonts in the same paste; convert each font family separately.
- Use a Unicode Tamil font (e.g., Latha, Noto Sans Tamil) when styling the converted text in your editor.
Behind the scenes
The app uses a rule-based mapping table for common Bamini keystrokes and digraphs. It processes longer patterns first to avoid partial replacements, then updates character counts and summaries without sending your text to any server.
