Chanakya mapping check

This page produces the repository’s standard Chanakya encoding. It does not claim Walkman-Chanakya-905/901 compatibility.

Generated target mapping: standard Chanakya reference mapping. Legacy result is generated read-only. Edit the source and convert again instead of typing into the encoded result. This keeps the verified target-font runs, English/number preservation and Copy-for-Word output in sync.

Convert the current source to see result checks. Editing the source or conversion options clears the previous result.

Workflow controls

Keyboard shortcuts: Ctrl/Cmd + Enter converts; Ctrl/Cmd + Shift + C copies raw/plain output only when one plain representation is safe. Mixed Unicode-to-legacy results require Copy for Word because their font runs carry part of the meaning. Important official, legal and print documents should still be proofread against the source.

Tested scope and important limitations

This converter targets the standard Chanakya mapping, not Walkman-Chanakya-905/901. Automated mapping tests reduce common errors, but important documents should be checked before filing, printing or publication.

Registered mapping: Unicode Devanagari → Chanakya · regression-tested

Tested with

  • Unicode to Chanakya mapping regression examples
  • Common words, matras, conjuncts, numbers and punctuation
  • Plain text and formatted-document paste workflows

Review before final use

  • Verified mapping: standard Chanakya only. Walkman-Chanakya-905/901 is a different encoding and must not be converted with this engine.
  • Mixed legacy fonts inside one paragraph are not detected automatically yet.
  • Decorative glyphs and vendor-specific font variants may need manual review.
  • Conversion preserves text structure where possible, not every Word layout feature.
  • Walkman-Chanakya-905/901 is a different legacy mapping and is not supported by the standard Chanakya engine.
  • Mixed legacy fonts in one passage are not automatically separated.
  • Vendor-specific variants and decorative glyphs may require manual review.
  • Document layout preservation is a workflow capability, not a font-mapping guarantee.

Frequently asked questions

What is Chanakya font?+

Chanakya is an older Hindi font format that predates Unicode. Some legacy government documents and archives still use it, so conversion is needed for compatibility.

Why would I convert Unicode to Chanakya?+

When you need to continue work on an existing Chanakya document, match legacy file formatting, or open files in software that only supports non-Unicode fonts.

Is the conversion private?+

Yes. All conversion happens in your browser using JavaScript. Your text is never uploaded to any server.

Does this tool support Walkman Chanakya text?+

No. Walkman-Chanakya-905/901 uses a different legacy character mapping from the standard Chanakya engine on this page. Do not paste Walkman text into this converter; use a converter built and tested for that exact Walkman mapping.
