Unicode Converter Functions

You use the Unicode Converter functions to convert text to or from Unicode. The Unicode Converter consists of two main symmetrical parts: one you use to convert text to Unicode from any other encoding, and the other you use to convert text from Unicode to any other encoding. Each of these parts contains its own set of functions. By using the Unicode Converter with Unicode as an intermediary encoding, you can also convert text from any source encoding to any destination encoding.
