About this tool
What is Bijoy and why convert from Unicode?
Bijoy is the most widely used legacy Bengali font system in Bangladesh. Developed in the 1980s, Bijoy revolutionized Bengali typing and became the standard for Bangla text entry across government, media, and publishing in Bangladesh.
Unicode is the modern standard for text encoding, but many systems in Bangladesh still require Bijoy font encoding. Government offices, newspapers, printing presses, and educational institutions often have workflows built around the Bijoy font. This converter bridges the gap by transforming Unicode Bengali text into Bijoy-compatible ASCII characters.
Paste your Unicode Bangla text in the input box above, and the converter will instantly produce the Bijoy font output. Copy the result and paste it into any application with the Bijoy font installed.
