Why Use Unicode for Nepali Typing?
In the past, fonts like Preeti were common. However, Preeti is not a “smart” font—it simply replaces English characters with Nepali shapes. If you send a message typed in Preeti to someone who doesn’t have that font installed, they will only see gibberish.
Unicode solves this problem. This tool generates standard Devanagari Unicode, ensuring your text is readable on:
- Facebook, Messenger, and WhatsApp
- Android & iOS devices
- Emails and Microsoft Word
- Google Search (SEO friendly)
