Frequently Asked Questions

What is Bamini font used for?

Bamini is a legacy Tamil font encoding widely used in Sri Lanka, and in Tamil print publishing houses across Tamil Nadu. It is common in older newspaper archives, books, and DTP layouts.

Why does my Unicode Tamil text look wrong after applying Bamini font?

Bamini is a non-Unicode legacy font that maps Tamil characters to specific ASCII key codes. You must convert your Unicode text to Bamini encoding first before applying the font in CorelDRAW or similar software.

Can I use the converted output in CorelDRAW or Photoshop?

Yes. Copy the converted output, paste it into your design software, and apply the Bamini font — the Tamil text will render correctly.

Does this work for Sri Lankan Tamil documents?

Yes. Bamini encoding is the same regardless of whether the Tamil text is Indian or Sri Lankan, so this converter works for both.

Is this tool free?

Yes, completely free with no signup, no watermarks, and no usage limits.
