When you find yourself in need of converting font from VNI-Times to Time New Roman and have no clue how to avoid font chaos. Explore that method with SoftwareTips.vn in today's article.
Before diving into the font conversion method from VNI-Times to Time New Roman, let's compare these two fonts side by side.
As you'll see in the image below, fundamentally, VNI-Times and Time New Roman have nearly identical font shapes.
So, if it already looks identical, why bother transitioning between these two fonts? The answer lies in the distinct character encodings that these font types are compatible with.
Take a glance at the image below and notice that the Time New Roman font is supported by Unicode encoding, while VNI-Times is supported by VNI Windows encoding.
Using mismatched encoding and fonts can result in font errors, displaying strange characters, or switching to another font incompatible with the original Unicode encoding and VNI-Times font.
Essentially, converting font from VNI-Times to Time New Roman means altering the character encoding of the text.
To achieve this, copy the text you want to convert using the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + C, or right-click and select Copy. Once you've copied the text, it's stored in the temporary Clipboard of your computer.
Next, utilize the Unikey typing tool as an intermediary to carry out the character encoding conversion.
Right-click on the Unikey icon in the toolbar and select the Tools... option, or use the keyboard shortcut Ctrl + Shift + F6 to execute the equivalent function.
This will open the UniKey Toolkit function window. This window will assist you in effortlessly converting character styles or changing the character encoding of the font.
Transfer the information in the Character Set section as follows:
- Source is VNI Windows because the text you just copied to the Clipboard uses the VNI-Times font with the VNI Windows character set. When typing that text, users must have used this character set to use the VNI-Times font.
- Destination is Unicode so later you can convert to the Time New Roman font without any font errors.
Remember to check the Convert clipboard code option for UniKey Toolkit to perform the direct conversion in your Clipboard.
Once done, click Convert to execute the conversion. At this point, you won't receive any notifications, but rest assured that the text you copied to the Clipboard has been converted to the Unicode character set. Close UniKey Toolkit by clicking Close.
Now, you turn to paste the text from the Clipboard into the desired location; here at SoftwareTips.vn, we've pasted it onto a blank page in Word.
Next, select the text and switch it to the Time New Roman font.
Now, you have a piece of text using the Time New Roman font converted from the VNI-Times font text.
