What is ShreeLipi?
ShreeLipi is a Hindi font ecosystem from Modular Infotech, first released in the late 1990s. It has its own proprietary ASCII-to-Devanagari mapping that differs from the Remington-Gail family used by Kruti Dev / Chanakya / DevLys.
ShreeLipi was widely used in newspaper publishing in Maharashtra, and in older government document workflows where the Modular Infotech typesetting suite was installed.
Current conversion status
Because ShreeLipi's mapping diverges from Remington-Gail, using the Kruti Dev converter on ShreeLipi input produces only partial correctness — roughly 60–70% of characters convert cleanly. Matras, vowel signs, and punctuation often require manual correction.
For small text blocks you can paste ShreeLipi into the Kruti Dev converter and then manually fix the mis-rendered characters. For large documents, wait for the dedicated ShreeLipi engine — target release next quarter.

Can I use Kruti Dev converter for ShreeLipi?
Only for small drafts with manual verification. ShreeLipi's proprietary mapping diverges enough that ~30–40% of characters need manual correction after conversion.

No. No major Indian government commission accepts ShreeLipi. The accepted Hindi layouts are Remington-Gail (Kruti Dev 010) and Inscript (Mangal).

Older Marathi and Hindi newspapers, regional publishing houses using Modular Infotech typesetting, and archived government documents from the 2000s in some states.
