BabelMap (Unicode Character Map for Windows)





Overview

BabelMap is a free character map application for Windows that allows you to browse through the entire Unicode character repertoire of nearly 150,000 characters, or search for a particular character by name or by code point. Characters can then be copied to the clipboard for use in any Unicode-aware application. It also provides many useful features and special utilities. BabelMap supports the most recent version of the Unicode Standard, currently Unicode 15.1 (released 12 September 2023).

Download

BabelMap is free to download and use for personal or commercial purposes. This free version is fully-featured, with no functional or time limitations, no adverts, no in-app purchases, and no malicious features. BabelMap is distributed as a single executable file (no installer). Simply download and unzip the single executable file (BabelMap.exe), and then run it from the desired location on your computer (recommended to run it from a subfolder of the "Program Files" directory). BabelMap runs on Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1, 10, and 11. For support, bug reports, or feature requests, please email me (Andrew West) at the email address given in BabelMap's About box. Please do not download BabelMap from any site other than babelstone.co.uk. I do not provide support for third-party distributions of BabelMap, such as BabelMap Portable from PortableApps.com.
