01 · About the font

AnmolLipi, in plain words.

Convert the verified AnmolLipi / GurbaniAkhar ASCII layout to standard Unicode Gurmukhi.

This profile follows the MIT-licensed Shabad OS mapping and its upstream conversion fixtures. The source explicitly identifies shared AnmolLipi and GurbaniAkhar slots.

02 · How to

How to convert AnmolLipi to Unicode (3 steps)

Legacy text only looks like Punjabi on a computer that has AnmolLipi installed. Everywhere else (phones, WhatsApp, websites, search results) it appears as English letters like “gurU”. Converting to Unicode fixes that for good.

  1. Paste your AnmolLipi text

    Check that “From” says AnmolLipi, then paste your text. AnmolLipi text such as “gurU pRBU” looks like a jumble of English letters and symbols until it is converted.

  2. Check the Unicode Punjabi

    The Unicode Punjabi appears as you paste: “ਗੁਰੂ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ”. Nothing in this AnmolLipi sample was flagged. When something is, a “notes” button lists it.

  3. Copy it or save a Word file

    Copy puts “ਗੁਰੂ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ” on your clipboard, ready for WhatsApp, Gmail or Google Docs. The Word button saves a .docx already set in Noto Sans Gurmukhi, so you don’t need AnmolLipi to read it.

Pick a Unicode font. Noto Sans Gurmukhi, Noto Serif Gurmukhi or Raavi.

Have a whole document instead of a paragraph? The Word file converter keeps tables, bold text and layout.

03 · Output font

Set the output font in MS Word or Google Docs

Unicode text is real Punjabi, so any Punjabi-capable font will display it. Pick one that looks good for your document.

Microsoft Word

  1. 1Paste the converted text, then press Ctrl+A (Cmd+A on Mac) to select everything.
  2. 2On the Home tab, click the font box, type “Noto Sans Gurmukhi” and press Enter.
  3. 3Optional: Review → Language → Set Proofing Language → Punjabi, so spell-check does not underline everything.
  4. 4If the text still shows boxes, install a Unicode font that covers the script, such as Noto Sans Gurmukhi.

Google Docs

  1. 1Paste the converted text and select it with Ctrl+A.
  2. 2Open the font menu → More fonts, search for “Noto Sans Gurmukhi” (or Noto Serif Gurmukhi) and add it.
  3. 3Apply the font. Because the text is Unicode, it also copies cleanly into Gmail, Sheets and Slides.

What to watch for.

  • Sihari is stored before its base; pairin ra, ha and va are encoded as subjoined forms.

Checked against the Shabad OS JavaScript library, the open-source converter this mapping was taken from: 657 of 720 test conversions matched exactly. All 63 differences were equivalent spellings. Because the mapping comes from that project, this checks how faithfully it was carried over, not whether the original table is right. See the accuracy page for every difference.

06 · FAQ

Questions about AnmolLipi to Unicode

Does this also accept GurbaniAkhar?

It supports the shared slots explicitly identified in the pinned Shabad OS source. Check unusual font variants against the original document.

Is my AnmolLipi text uploaded to a server?

No. The conversion runs as JavaScript in your browser, so your text never leaves your device. Once the page has loaded, it works offline too.

Which font should I use after converting AnmolLipi to Unicode?

Noto Sans Gurmukhi, Noto Serif Gurmukhi or Raavi. Unicode text is not tied to one font, so you can switch typeface later without converting again.

How accurate is the AnmolLipi converter?

It was checked against the converter its mapping came from: 657 of 720 test conversions matched the Shabad OS JavaScript library exactly. Each of the other 63 was reviewed. No independent converter has confirmed the table itself yet. The sample on this page converts exactly as expected. No fluent-speaker review has been done, so read important text before you print or submit it.
