About This Tamil Font Converter

FontConvertor.in is a free online Tamil font converter that converts between Unicode and 18+ legacy Tamil font encodings — including SenTamil, Bamini, TSCII, TAM, Vanavil, SunTommy, Stmzh, Shree Lipi, Amudham, MCL Mangai, LT-TM Semparuthi, Ka Lagaram and more. All conversion runs instantly in your browser — your text is never sent to any server.

Legacy Tamil fonts like Bamini and SenTamil were developed before Unicode became the universal standard. Documents created in these encodings appear as scrambled English letters on modern devices that don't have the legacy font installed. This converter decodes those characters and converts them to standard Unicode Tamil (UTF-8), which works on every phone, tablet, and computer without any font installation.

Bidirectional conversion is fully supported — convert any legacy Tamil font to Unicode, or convert Unicode back to any legacy format for use with older publishing and printing systems. Direct font-to-font conversion (for example, Bamini to SenTamil without going through Unicode) is also available.

Common Questions

How do I convert SenTamil to Unicode? Select SenTamil as the Source Font and Unicode (UTF-8) as the Target Font, then paste your text. Conversion happens instantly in your browser — no upload, no signup needed.

How do I convert Unicode to SenTamil? The converter defaults to Unicode → SenTamil. Just paste your Unicode Tamil text in the left panel and the SenTamil-encoded output appears on the right immediately.

Which Tamil fonts are supported? FontConvertor.in supports 18+ Tamil encodings including Unicode, Bamini, SenTamil, TSCII, TAM, Vanavil, SunTommy, Stmzh, Shree Lipi, Amudham, TAB Anna, Ka Lagaram, MCL Mangai, LT-TM Semparuthi and more. Bidirectional conversion is available for all formats.

Why does my converted text look wrong or garbled? The source font selection is likely incorrect. Try Bamini first (most common), then SenTamil, then TSCII. The output will display as correct Tamil script when you select the right source encoding.

Is this Tamil font converter free? Yes — completely free. There are no limits on text length, no account required, and no watermarks on the output. All conversion runs locally in your browser.

Can I convert Bamini to SenTamil directly? Yes. Set Source Font to Bamini and Target Font to SenTamil. Direct conversion between any two of the 18+ supported formats is available — you do not need to convert to Unicode as an intermediate step.
