About Tamil Font Converter
A free tool for moving Tamil text between Unicode and the legacy fonts that many documents, books and print files still use.
Tamil Font Converter was built for people who still work with old Tamil typing formats: DTP operators, publishers, printers, teachers, students, office staff and anyone with archived Tamil files. A great deal of valuable Tamil writing is stored in fonts like Bamini, TAB, TAM, Vanavil, Senthamil and Shree Lipi. On a modern phone or website that text often shows up as English letters and symbols.
The converter fixes that in both directions. It turns legacy font text into Unicode Tamil that works everywhere, and it turns Unicode Tamil back into legacy font text for layouts and templates that still need it.
What makes it different
- Private by design. Conversion happens inside your browser. Your text and files are not uploaded to our server.
- 41 fonts, both directions. Each font has its own page with instructions in English and Tamil.
- Built for real typing. Thanglish typing, voice typing, .txt files, copy, download, share and print.
- Works like an app. Install it on your phone or computer and keep converting even when you are offline.
Who it is for
Tamil typists, students, publishers, designers, teachers, bloggers, government and office staff, and families keeping old letters and documents. If you have Tamil text in an old font and want to use it today, this site is for you.
Why Unicode matters
Unicode gives every Tamil letter one standard code. Unicode Tamil can be searched, copied, shared, indexed by Google and read by screen readers. Moving old content to Unicode keeps it usable for the future.
