I have a MS Word doc which uses Chanakya font, after installing Chanakya font, instead of half ka क् example क्या, I am getting €(EURO) symbol. Below are few sample screenshots:

Chanakya font version can be viewed in the screenshot below: enter image description here

These documents source are unknown and we can't identify if there was an earlier version of Chanakya font being used. I can think of the following:

  • Is there a possibility to identify the font version used in source doc files?
  • Any alternate way to fix this issue?

I have tried downloading PFB file of Chanakya font from https://sites.google.com/site/technicalhindi/about/_draft_post and then converted it to TTF using an online PFB to TTF Converter, but no success.

I can't comment yet, but have you ruled out encoding issues? If you copy the text into a web browser, does it show as the correct Indic text, or does it have the same issues?

  • Yes, I have tried that and it doesn't show right Indic text. – Chetan Sachdev Sep 18 '19 at 12:04
  • Can you copy and paste the full text here? Maybe that'll be insightful. – Jack Humbert Sep 18 '19 at 12:06
