Question

I did an android application which displays malayalam ascii encoded fonts in webview.
Now I have to display unicode character set (like &#3384 ; &#3394 ; &#3370 ; &#3405 ; &#3370 😉 but it didn’t displaying properly on webview. The text is getting unreadable and meaningless.

1. In Older impl I am having the text like this Y¢j¤lcÉd¤j«: Jt´Tl¡l¤
   a¢c·
2. In current impl its like &#3384 ; &#3394 ; &#3370 ; &#3405 ; &#3370 ;

So I would like to know is it possible to convert Unicode (ie, from 2) format to the ASCII (ie, to 1) in android ?

The font used is thoolika.ttf.

Thanks in Advance
