Convert Bijoy text to Unicode Bangla

Old Bangla documents written with Bijoy and fonts such as SutonnyMJ look like “Avgvi †mvbvi evsjv” anywhere the font is missing. Paste that text here and get real Unicode Bangla (আমার সোনার বাংলা) that you can use on websites, in Facebook, WhatsApp, Google Docs and every modern app. The conversion runs in your browser.

Features

  • Live and two-way

    The Unicode text appears as you paste or type Bijoy, and you can also type Unicode (with optional phonetic typing) to get Bijoy. There is no button to press and no limit on how often you convert.

  • Bijoy text shown as Bangla

    A Bangla preview shows what the Bijoy text says. If SutonnyMJ is installed the Bijoy box uses it, or you can load your own font file, which is never uploaded.

  • Conjuncts and vowel signs in the right order

    Bijoy writes the vowel signs ি ে ৈ before the letter and the reph after it. The converter puts them back in Unicode order and keeps conjuncts such as ক্ষ, জ্ঞ, স্ত্র and ন্ত intact.

  • Both e-kar glyphs and common variants

    Text typed with either e-kar glyph, with the alternative u-kar and ri-kar shapes, or with the older conjunct glyphs is understood.

  • Open and save text files

    Open a .txt file of up to 5 MB, convert it and download the Unicode result as a UTF-8 text file.

  • Keep English words with { }

    English letters and Bijoy letters are the same characters, so put any English words in {curly braces} and they stay as they are. Digits and punctuation convert like Bijoy does.

How to use Bijoy to Unicode Converter

  1. Copy the Bijoy text from your document and paste it into the first box.
  2. Read the Unicode Bangla that appears in the second box.
  3. Select Copy to put it on your clipboard, or Download .txt to save it.
  4. Paste the result wherever you need Unicode, and check names and numbers once.

Supported formats

AcceptsBijoy (ANSI) text, TXT
ProducesUnicode text, TXT

Paste text copied from Word or a PDF that used a Bijoy font.

Limits and things to know

  • The text must be copied as text. A scanned page or a picture of Bijoy text cannot be converted; use the OCR tool for that.
  • Bijoy fonts differ slightly, so a few rare glyphs may not convert. Check the result, especially names and unusual conjuncts.
  • This converts plain text. To convert a whole Word file with its formatting, copy the text out first.
  • Plain text cannot say which words are English and which are Bijoy, so English words are converted too unless you put them in {curly braces}.
  • Files over 5 MB are not opened. Split a long text into parts.

Privacy and processing

The conversion is a plain text transformation done by JavaScript in your browser. Your text is not sent to FilesKit, which has no server that receives text or files.

Common uses

  • Move old documents to Unicode

    Make letters, notices and reports written years ago in Bijoy searchable and readable on any device.

  • Post to the web and social media

    Facebook, WhatsApp and websites need Unicode, so convert Bijoy drafts before you publish.

  • Prepare data for software

    Databases, spreadsheets and apps expect Unicode; convert names and addresses typed in Bijoy.

  • Share with people without the font

    Send text that opens correctly for everyone, even if they do not have SutonnyMJ installed.

How this differs from other approaches

Many online converters send your text to a server. Word macros and desktop tools such as Bijoy Bayanno convert whole documents but need installation. This page converts text instantly on your own device.

Frequently asked questions

Is my text uploaded?

No. The conversion happens in your browser and FilesKit has no server that receives your text.

Why does my Bijoy text look like English letters?

Bijoy stores each Bangla glyph as an ordinary character that only looks Bangla in a Bijoy font such as SutonnyMJ. Without the font you see letters like “Avgvi”. Unicode fixes this because each Bangla letter has its own code.

Which fonts does it support?

It follows the SutonnyMJ layout used by Bijoy and by many similar ANSI fonts. Fonts with a different glyph order will not convert correctly.

Can I convert a whole Word file?

Copy the text from the file and paste it here. The converter works on text, not on the formatting of a document.

Can I convert Unicode back to Bijoy?

Yes. Use the Unicode to Bijoy converter for the opposite direction.
