If you wonder how you can insert the Rupee (₹) symbol into your document, then this post is for you.

First of all the font should be installed in your system.

Windows All

If you use windows Vista or Later, You can install the official upgrade by Microsoft by visiting this link:
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=2496898

Note: But as for windows XP users, the font is not official and hence you guys better not use the font from third party. Because if you use that font and you gave this document to any other person, who used vista or later or even xp who hasn’t installed your font, will not be able to see that symbol.

After installing the font you can use the key combination as give

<Press-and-hold Alt> 2 0 b 9 <Release Alt>

Linux

Ubuntu/Kubuntu 10.10 and later versions comes with the font out of the box. So you need not worry about this.
In ubuntu you can use the following key comination for the Symbol.

<Press and Hold Ctrl-Shift-u> 2 0 b 9 <Release all keys, enter>

Now you can see the font there! You can try these following methods too.

• Kubuntu 10.10: Copy-and-paste ‘₹’
• HTML: insert “₹”

Now If none of these techniques works for you, then do this.

1. Download the font from Here => Font for Rupee Symbol (₹)

2. Install the font.

3. Copy the file to C:WindowsFonts directory.(for Windows XP users) / 2. Right-click the file and choose “Install”. (for Windows 7/Vista users)

4. Press the Tild Sign in your keyboard.

PDFs are the most common ebook format. So most of you will be having the pdf formatted ebooks collection. Now kindle is the most common ebook reader. Most of you may also have the Kindle. But if you are a user of kindle, you know how nice is the kindle books with the controls they are giving us with their kindle formats. And PDF files will not simply work along with all those controls and options. So now you need the pdf to kindle format converter! You can read on how to do this conversion. Its pretty easy.

First of all you can do this in several ways.

1. You can use Auto Kindle to convert a PDF to a Mobi file. (Windows)

This project was originally a quick for me to convert my ebook collection in various formats to a kindle compatible format without worrying about the ebook source type. It takes PDF, Lit, and HTML files and converts them to .mobi.

2. Or you can use Calibre. It will convert from most ebook formats to most others. (Windows/Linux)

But its a ebook library management system and it has lots of options which can confuse you if you haven’t been familiar with its functionalities. I cannot say its a converter. Its a management system with all the options. But it is available for Linux also.
