Frequently Asked Questions

Is this tool free to use?

Yes — completely free, with no sign-up required for any of the three modes.

What is EKLG-17 and why would I need it?

EKLG-17 is a legacy, ASCII-mapped Gujarati font used in many older Gujarati design and print workflows (invitation cards, banners, printed material) that predate Unicode. This converter bridges old EKLG-17 files with modern Unicode Gujarati text, in both directions.

Does phonetic typing need an internet connection?

Yes, for live Google-powered suggestions. If Google's endpoint is ever unavailable, the server automatically falls back to its own offline engine — you'll see "Offline mode" in the status indicator when that happens.

Is my typed or pasted text stored anywhere?

No. Text you enter is sent to our server only to generate the conversion result and is not saved or logged afterwards.

Which sounds does the phonetic typing support?

All standard Gujarati vowels and consonants, including retroflex letters (typed in CAPITALS) and common conjuncts like ક્ષ (ksh) and જ્ઞ (gy). See the phonetic key table above the tool for the full list.

Can I use the EKLG-17 output directly in Canva?

EKLG-17 is a legacy Windows font meant for desktop design software (like CorelDRAW or Photoshop) with the font installed locally. Canva doesn't support installing custom local fonts, so EKLG-17 output is best used in desktop design tools rather than Canva directly.

Does this work on mobile?

Yes, the converter works in any modern mobile browser, though phonetic typing is easiest with a physical or full-size on-screen keyboard.
