Shree Dev Font Keyboard Chart (Latest)
Shree Dev Font Keyboard Chart Below is a clear, visual reference for typing with the Shree Dev (Shree Devanagari) font layout on a standard US QWERTY keyboard. Use this chart to map keys to Devanagari characters, diacritics (matras), conjunct helpers, and common punctuation when Shree Dev is active. Notes:
Uppercase = Shift pressed. Where a single key produces more than one glyph (base consonant + matra/virama), the most common output is shown first; Shift variants are indicated. Use the “virama” (halant) key to form consonant clusters; many conjuncts are created automatically by the input engine when you type consonant sequences. Some keys produce nukta or rare signs; those are shown where applicable.

q/Q style mapping above uses consonant keys producing consonant + आ when Shifted; many layouts use separate keys for matras: a (or specific matra key) : ा (aa) i : ि (i — appears before consonant visually) I : ी (ii) u : ु (u) U : ू (uu) e : े (e) E : ै (ai) o : ो (o) O : ौ (au) , : ं (anusvara) . : ः (visarga) Shift+/ : ् (virama/halant) Shree Dev Font Keyboard Chart
Conjuncts and special signs
Virama (halant) removes inherent vowel: use Shift+/ (or dedicated key) to type कु + virama = क् then n = क्न (conjunct) Nukta: type ? (or Shift+?) to add dot under consonant (e.g., फ़, ग़) if layout supports it Avagraha: ~ produces ऽ Numerals: top number row gives Devanagari digits ०–९
Examples (typing sequences)
"कर्म" : press q (क) → a (ा) → r (घ? but forर्म need virama) — correct sequence: क (q), virama (Shift+/), r? — layouts vary; typical method: q (क) → Shift+/ (्) → d (द) → m (म) to form क्द्म depending on desired conjunct. (Use halant between consonants to form clusters.)
Quick tips
To type an independent vowel (e.g., आ), use the vowel key or Shifted consonant pattern depending on font driver. If matras render visually before the consonant (e.g., ि), type the matra key after the consonant; the input system reorders display. For rare glyphs or exact mapping differences, check your OS/font installer mapping — some Shree Dev installers include a PDF keyboard map with exact key-by-key images.
