Is this Preeti and Unicode converter page free to use?

Yes. Every Kaamko tool is free, with no sign-up, no account and no usage limit. They are published by Imperial College of Engineering, a Tribhuvan University-affiliated engineering college in Tathali, Bhaktapur, and are not funded by advertising.

Does what I type get sent anywhere?

No. This tool runs entirely in your browser: the calculation happens on your own device, nothing you type is uploaded, and nothing is stored after you close the page.

Where do the figures come from?

Each tool names its source on the page, along with the date that source was read. Where a rate or a slab is provisional — announced in a budget speech but not yet gazetted, for instance — the page says so rather than presenting it as settled.

Who maintains these tools?

Imperial College of Engineering, formerly Janakpur Engineering College, in Tathali, Bhaktapur, Nepal. Corrections are welcome by phone on 01-5091616 or through the contact page, and a figure reported as wrong is checked against its published source rather than adjusted on request.

Private by default: all conversion runs in this browser. Smart suggestions are optional and send only the unfinished Roman word to Google Input Tools.

Choose the workflow that matches your text

Direct typing turns Roman spelling into Unicode inside one editable pad.English to Unicode keeps the Roman source and Unicode result in separate pads when you need to compare them. Both interpret a phrase such as mero desh asमेरो देश.

Preeti to Unicode decodes text copied from a document that uses the old Preeti keyboard mapping. Unicode to Preeti does the reverse for a legacy Word or publishing template. Neither conversion is a translation.

Why Preeti can look like English symbols

Preeti stores ordinary character codes and changes how those codes are drawn. For example,g]kfn is the stored value for नेपाल. If a device does not have a compatible Preeti font, it can only show the stored codes. This page uses a locally installed Preeti font when available and always keeps a Unicode preview visible, so the readable result never depends on that font.

Data and privacy

Preeti conversion uses tables included in the page and makes no network request. Romanized typing uses local phonetic rules and common-word overrides by default. If you enable Smart suggestions, only the unfinished Roman word is sent to Google Input Tools to retrieve better-ranked spelling candidates; Preeti and completed text are not sent.

The Preeti character tables are derived from the MIT-licensed diwaskunwar converter and globalpolicy converter. Romanized typing uses the aNepaliengine with its creator's permission, with additional verified corrections for common Nepali terms.
