![]() The translation of records or data strings within a file may be an explicitly defined task or it may be done as part of a file transfer process when files are being moved between systems that use a different encoding schema. For example, if the data strings contain packed or binary data or control information then the data conversion becomes content sensitive. However, in the real world the actual conversion of data strings between an ASCII and EBCDIC encoding schema is usually more complicated than a simple byte-for-byte conversion. If the data strings contain only display or printable characters then it is a straightforward, byte-for-byte conversion. ![]() When moving information (files or data buffers) between EBCDIC machines and ASCII machines it is quite often necessary to convert the information. The following conversion table is provided as a reference for ASCII and EBCDIC translation. ASCII or EBCDIC, Translation Tables ASCII or EBCDIC
