Hieroglyphic Text in Unicode:

This tool converts Gardiner codes and their phonetic values (so-called Manuel de Codage) into Unicode. It is based on the guidelines Recommendations for encoding Egyptian hieroglyphs in Unicode published by ORAEC. As an example, p:z-x:Z9-ib:Z1-A1-z:S:D54-a:Z1-w&Z4-A1 is entered in the search box. After clicking the button, the converted hieroglyphs appear in the box below. In the given example this is: ๐“Šช๐“Šƒ๐“๐“ด๐“„ฃ๐“ค๐“€€๐“Šƒ๐“ˆ™๐“‚ป๐“‚๐“ค๐“…ฑ๐“ญ๐“€€. The character converts unknown elements like an A101 into a ๏ฟฝ. Strings with " remain untouched. Please send suggestions for improvement to oraec@tutanota.com
