FAQ
KrutiDev 010 has been freely distributed for decades and is used throughout Indian government offices, DTP shops, and typing institutes. We're not aware of any active licensing restrictions on personal or commercial use, but note that unlike Google's Devanagari fonts (which are formally OFL/Apache licensed), KrutiDev does not have a formal open-source license. Verify with your organization's compliance policy before commercial distribution.
That's the font working correctly — but you're seeing raw Latin characters because the surrounding text isn't marked as Kruti Dev. Select the text in your document and change the font to "Kruti Dev 010". The Latin letters will render as Devanagari glyphs via the Remington keyboard mapping.
No — the converter runs entirely in your browser and doesn't need any font installed. You only need Kruti Dev installed if you want to type in it directly (via a Remington keyboard layout) or view existing Kruti Dev documents on their own rendering.
