What is an Avro to Bijoy Converter?

An Avro to Bijoy Converter is a utility that translates Bengali text written using the modern Avro Phonetic keyboard (which outputs Unicode) into the legacy Bijoy (ANSI) format. This is essential for designers and print professionals who need to work with older DTP software that requires Bijoy fonts.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. Why would I need to convert from Avro (Unicode) to Bijoy?

Many graphic designers and printing presses in Bangladesh still use software (like older versions of Adobe Photoshop or Illustrator) that only works correctly with legacy ANSI fonts like SutonnyMJ, which is based on the Bijoy layout. This tool bridges that gap.

2. Is this the same as Unicode to Bijoy?

Yes. Since Avro's primary output is Unicode, converting from Avro to Bijoy is functionally the same as converting from Unicode to Bijoy.
