Nepali Preeti Font (नेपाली प्रिती फन्ट)

Nepali Preeti Font (नेपाली प्रिती फन्ट) – An Overview

Preeti Font (नेपाली प्रिती फन्ट) is one of the most widely used and popular fonts for typing in the Nepali language. Developed in the early days of digital Nepali typing, it follows the traditional keyboard layout that resembles the English QWERTY keyboard but is mapped to Devanagari script characters.

Preeti Font is not a Unicode font but rather an ANSI-based font, meaning that texts typed in Preeti need to be converted to Unicode for online usage. It is commonly used in government documents, school and college assignments, official letters, and printed materials in Nepal.

The font consists of unique letter mapping, where each English key represents a Nepali character. Users must memorize the layout or use a Preeti Keyboard layout chart to type accurately. Unlike Unicode fonts like Mangal or Noto Sans Devanagari, Preeti does not support direct web usage without conversion.

Despite the rise of Unicode fonts, Preeti remains widely used due to its familiarity and compatibility with older systems. Many people still prefer it for offline typing, printing, and designing Nepali documents. Its legacy continues as one of Nepal’s most recognized digital fonts.

Additionally, Preeti Font is widely supported by software like Microsoft Word, Photoshop, and other text editors, making it a preferred choice for professionals in various fields. Whether for personal use or official documentation, Preeti remains an integral part of Nepali digital communication.
