Bijoy is one of the oldest and most popular systems for typing Bangla text. It uses ASCII characters displayed through special fonts like SutonnyMJ. While widely used, Bijoy text requires specific fonts to display correctly.
Unicode is the modern standard for text encoding that works across all devices and platforms. Unicode Bangla text displays correctly everywhere without special fonts, making it better for websites, apps, and digital documents.

Troubleshooting
Common issues and their solutions:
Text appears as squares or question marks
This happens when your device doesn't have a Unicode Bangla font installed. Try these solutions:
- Install a Unicode Bangla font like Kalpurush, SolaimanLipi, or Noto Sans Bengali
- Try using a different browser or device that supports Bengali text
- For Windows users, make sure Bengali language support is enabled
Some characters look different after conversion
This is normal because Unicode and Bijoy use different technical approaches to represent Bengali characters. The text content is the same even if it looks slightly different.
Conversion seems incorrect for some text
This may happen if:
- The original text isn't actually in Bijoy format
- The text has been partially converted or mixed with other formats
- Some rare conjuncts or characters are being used
Try converting smaller sections to identify the problematic parts.
