From Devanagari Text to 3D Printing: Introducing Akshar

Creating custom designs in Marathi and Hindi doesn't have to involve manually tracing letters in CAD software. Discover how Akshar helps transform Devanagari text into SVG, DXF and STL files for creative and fabrication workflows.

Devanagari text नमस्ते transformed into SVG and DXF outlines and a 3D printed object.

Indian languages are an important part of personalized products, signage, gifting and visual design. Yet preparing Devanagari text for digital fabrication can be challenging, particularly when vector outlines or 3D models are required.

Akshar by IRIS Technologies is designed to simplify this process.

Users can enter Devanagari text and generate digital files suitable for further design work, including:

  • SVG: Vector artwork for editing and compatible design workflows.
  • DXF: CAD-compatible outlines for compatible CNC and laser workflows.
  • STL: Three-dimensional geometry for slicing and 3D printing.

Why it matters

For makers, designers and small businesses, reducing the time spent converting text into usable geometry can make customized products easier to develop.

From Marathi nameplates and Hindi keychains to personalized gifts and decorative lettering, Akshar creates a starting point for transforming written language into physical products.
