Questions people ask

How do I convert Unicode Tamil to TAM?

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

Why would I need TAM text?

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

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

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

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.
