What is AMS Font Encoding?
AMS (Akshar Mala System) is a legacy font encoding system widely used for Hindi and Marathi typing in India. Unlike Unicode, which assigns unique codepoints to each character, AMS fonts use ASCII positions (0x20-0x7E) to represent Devanagari glyphs. This means you need a converter to transform standard Unicode text into AMS-encoded text that renders correctly with AMS fonts.
