About this conversion
Text typed in the Bamini font looks fine on a machine with Bamini installed, but the moment it opens on a phone, in a browser or in any editor without that font, it becomes a string of Latin letters — 'rk;gpy;' instead of 'தமிழ்'.
Converting Bamini to Unicode fixes this permanently. The output is standard Unicode Tamil: readable everywhere, searchable on Google, and safe to paste into YouTube descriptions, WhatsApp, invoices or documents.
This direction is where most people fix real problems — recovering captions, government records, old newsletters and downloaded files. It runs on your device, so nothing is uploaded.
Edge cases
- Key aliases: Bamini has alternate keys for some characters (like 'யு10' vs 'A+'); both convert to the correct Unicode.
- ரி after ச: reading 'rhp' back can produce a different syllable than the one originally typed — documented font behavior.
- Missing keys: clusters with no Bamini key (ஙு and similar) appear unchanged in the output if present.
