How to type Urdu online
- Click inside the editor.
- Type with your device's Urdu keyboard, or tap letters on the on-screen keyboard.
- Use Copy or Download TXT when finished.
The text is Unicode Urdu, which Microsoft Word, Google Docs, email and web pages all understand. Paste it into Word and set the paragraph direction to right-to-left; choose a Nastaliq or Naskh font if the default looks plain.
Limitations
The virtual keyboard inserts characters one at a time and does not provide phonetic typing. Nothing is saved: refresh the page and the text is gone, so copy or download your work.
