About TAM

TAM is a legacy Tamil font used in some Tamil software and older publishing workflows. Like other legacy encodings, it maps Tamil letters to Latin keystrokes that only display correctly when the TAM font is installed.

TAM documents are common enough to keep showing up in records and downloads. Converting TAM to Unicode makes that text portable — readable on any device, searchable and editable.

The TAM table is complete for vowels and consonants. The rare cluster ளொ and the anusvara (ஂ) have no TAM key and pass through unchanged.

Edge cases

  • ளொ has no TAM key and passes through unchanged.
  • Anusvara: ஂ stays unchanged.
  • Digits: TAM uses ASCII digits, so 0–9 pass through as-is.
