<h2>iconv - Convert characters from one CCSID to another CCSID</h2>
<strong>Synopsis</strong>
<p><strong>iconv -f</strong> <em>fromCCSID</em> <strong>-t</strong> <em>toCCSID</em> <strong>[</strong> <em>file</em> ... <strong>]</strong>
<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>The <strong>iconv</strong> utility converts the encoding of characters read
from either standard input or the specified <em>file</em> from one CCSID to
another CCSID and then writes the results to standard
output. The input data is assumed to be in the CCSID specified by the
<em>fromCCSID</em> parameter. If <em>file</em> is not specified, the
<strong>iconv</strong> utility reads from standard input.</p>
<p>You must specify <a href="../nls/rbagsccsidcdepgscharsets.htm">valid i5/OS<SUP>(TM)</SUP> CCSIDs</a> with a supported
conversion for the <em>fromCCSID</em> and <em>toCCSID</em> parameters.</p>
<p><strong>Options</strong></p>
<dl>
<dt><strong>-f</strong> <em>fromCCSID</em></dt>
<dd>The input data is encoded in the <em>fromCCSID</em>.</dd>
<dt><strong>-t</strong> <em>toCCSID</em></dt>
<dd>The output data is encoded in the <em>toCCSID</em>.</dd>
</dl>
<p><strong>Operands</strong></p>
<p>The <em>file</em> operand specifies a path name to a regular file.</p>
<p><strong>Exit Status</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>0 when successful</li>
