Questions people ask

How do I convert Unicode Tamil to DCI?

Paste the Unicode Tamil above with DCI picked. Copy the result into your document and set the font to DCI TML, or download the Word file.

Why would I need DCI text?

Older page layout and design programs, print shops and some office files still use DCI. They show Unicode Tamil with broken letters, but DCI text prints correctly in them.

The DCI result looks like English letters. Is it wrong?

No. That is how DCI stores Tamil. It shows as Tamil once the font is set to DCI.

Is my text or file uploaded?

No. Everything is converted in your browser on this device. Nothing you paste or open is sent to a server.
