About BanglaTools

BanglaTools provides an online converter between Bangla Unicode text and Bijoy ANSI encoding, including the Avro-to-Bijoy and SutonnyMJ-to-Unicode directions. It handles plain text and TXT files as well as DOCX and Word documents and XLSX Excel files, preserving line breaks, paragraphs, tables, sheets, formulas, and styles during conversion. The tool performs Bangla-aware reordering of pre-kars, reph, hasanta sequences, digits, punctuation, and conjuncts to convert between Unicode's logical character order and the legacy visual glyph order used by Bijoy ANSI.

The site states that conversion happens locally in the browser, with text pasted, fixed, imported from TXT, copied, or downloaded without being sent to a server. It notes that Avro produces Unicode Bangla while Bijoy Classic and SutonnyMJ use legacy ANSI glyph positions, and that changing encoding does not guarantee correct display without the matching font in the destination application. PDF files are not accepted as input.

The tool is intended for editors, publishers, students, government teams, and developers who need to move Bangla text between modern web-based Unicode workflows and legacy desktop Bijoy-based workflows. It is offered free with no sign-up required and is described as bidirectional and mobile-ready.
