What is Unicode?
Unicode is a globally recognized computer standard designed to support all major writing systems, ensuring compatibility across modern operating systems. It includes comprehensive support for Indic (Indian) scripts such as Devanagari (Hindi, Marathi, Sanskrit), Bengali (Bengali, Assamese), Gurmukhi (Punjabi), Gujarati, Oriya, Tamil, Telugu, Kannada, and Malayalam. Unicode serves as the foundation for software internationalization, making digital text universally accessible. All Lipikola fonts adhere to the Unicode standard.
Benefits of Unicode
- Universal Compatibility: Documents and web pages created using Unicode text will display correctly on any computer or device that supports Unicode, even if the specific font used in the document is not installed on the system.
- Enhanced Web Presence: Search engines can accurately process and index information written in Unicode, making it possible to search the internet in languages like Punjabi, Bengali, or Tamil—a significant milestone for language accessibility.
- Future-Proof Standard: As Unicode is universally adopted, older font encoding systems are becoming obsolete. Major technology companies are committed to supporting Unicode, ensuring long-term compatibility and seamless data exchange across platforms without font dependency.
By adopting Unicode, we ensure that digital text remains consistent, searchable, and accessible worldwide.
