Broken Text Fixer Features
When You Need a Broken Text Fixer
Fix Database Export Issues
Bangla text exported from databases with wrong encoding settings often appears as mojibake. Paste it here to fix the encoding and restore proper Bangla.
Repair API Response Text
API responses with incorrect Content-Type headers can produce garbled Bangla. Paste the garbled text and the fixer identifies and repairs the encoding mismatch.
Recover Old Documents
Old Bangla documents saved with wrong encoding settings can be recovered. The fixer tries multiple strategies to restore the original text.
Fix Copy-Paste Issues
Text that got garbled during copy-paste between applications with different encoding settings can be fixed instantly.
Understanding the Fix Result
The fixer tries multiple strategies to repair your text: (1) UTF-8 decoded as Windows-1252, (2) double-encoded UTF-8, and (3) Bijoy text displayed without a Bijoy font. It picks the result with the highest ratio of Bengali Unicode characters.
If no fix improves the text, the original is returned unchanged. The strategy label tells you which fix was applied, so you can understand what went wrong and prevent it in the future.
Common Broken Text Problems & Fixes
| Problem | Cause | Fix |
|---|---|---|
| Fixer says "No fix needed" but text is still garbled | The garbled text may use a non-standard encoding or custom corruption. | Try the Encoding Detector first to identify the encoding, then use the appropriate converter. |
| Fixed text shows boxes instead of Bangla | The fix was successful but your device lacks a Bengali Unicode font. | Install Noto Sans Bengali or update your OS. Modern devices include Bengali fonts by default. |
| Alternative fixes show but none look correct | None of the three strategies could fully repair the text. | The text may have a complex encoding issue. Try manual encoding conversion or contact support. |
| Fixed text is partially correct with some garbled characters remaining | The text may contain a mix of encoding issues — some characters were fixed but others need a different strategy. | Copy the partially fixed text, then paste it back into the fixer for a second pass. Alternatively, manually correct the remaining garbled characters. |
Frequently Asked Questions
What is mojibake?
Mojibake (文字化け) is the garbled text that appears when text is decoded using the wrong character encoding. For Bangla, this commonly happens when UTF-8 text is decoded as Windows-1252/Latin-1, producing characters like "আমি" instead of "আমি".
How does the fixer know which fix to apply?
The fixer tries multiple strategies: UTF-8 decoded as Windows-1252, double-encoded UTF-8, and Bijoy text displayed as Latin. It picks the result with the highest ratio of Bengali Unicode characters, which indicates the most successful fix.
Can the fixer repair any garbled text?
The fixer handles the three most common encoding mismatch scenarios. If your text has a different issue (e.g., custom encoding or corruption), the fixer may not be able to repair it. In that case, the original text is returned unchanged.
Will the fixer change my correct text?
No. The fixer only applies a fix if it improves the Bangla character ratio. If your text is already correct, it will be returned unchanged with a "No fix needed" message.
What encoding issues cause garbled Bangla text?
The most common causes are: (1) UTF-8 Bangla decoded as Windows-1252/Latin-1 (common in old databases), (2) double-encoded UTF-8 (common in API responses), and (3) Bijoy text displayed without a Bijoy font (looks like random English letters).
Is this Broken Text Fixer free?
Yes, completely free. No registration, no daily limit, no character cap. All fixing happens in your browser — there is no server-side processing. You can use it unlimited times for personal, educational, or commercial work.
Can the fixer handle text with mixed encodings?
The fixer applies a single strategy to the entire text. If your text contains a mix of encodings (e.g., some UTF-8 and some Bijoy), the fixer may not fully repair it. For mixed-encoding text, split it into sections and fix each section separately.
How can I prevent mojibake in the future?
Ensure all your applications, databases, and APIs use UTF-8 encoding. Set the correct charset in HTTP headers (Content-Type: text/html; charset=utf-8), database connections (SET NAMES utf8mb4), and HTML meta tags (<meta charset="utf-8">). Always specify UTF-8 when saving files.
