How to use it
- Type the words in English letters, the way they sound (vaNakkam, nanRi, thamizh).
- The Tamil appears below as you type. Use capitals for N, L, R and S where Tamil has two letters.
- Press Copy for Unicode (WhatsApp, Word, Designee), or pick an older DTP font like Bamini and copy that.
Questions
- Which one should I copy, Unicode or Bamini?
- Unicode works everywhere today: phones, WhatsApp, Word, websites and Designee. Copy Bamini or another older font only for DTP software that still uses those fonts.
- Is it the same as the font converter?
- It uses the same Tamil rules. This page is for typing; the font converter changes text you already have between Unicode and older fonts.
- Are my files uploaded?
- No. This tool runs entirely in your browser, so your files and text never leave your device. It works without an account.
