Default How to paste so that diacritics remain intact?


When i take quotes using diacritics, then it pastes in a scrambled way, i know Balarama font changes it back but its not listed in the fonts here. How do you take quotes from veda base? I also see devotees have the reference at the bottom, is there some way of bringing that up automatically too when you quote? pls help,

Funny... I had the problem of posting here from vedabase and it showing with Balarama font which is unreadable to most including myself. And since the idea of offering a post is to make it as readable as possible to the readers I sought for a way to get rid of the Balarama font. I like toit post exactly as Srila Prabhupada had it printed... without such fonts.

Fortunately the kind souls at Bhaktivedanta Memorial Library have provided a very easy and fast converter box so what ever I post here from vedabase I run first through there.

Anyone interested here is the link.

Alas, they have my old converter there! You can also find that at Gaudiya Grantha Mandira:

Cool raga. There can't be too many converters. It works great easy and always. Did you design it? It has saved me a lot of grief over the years.
