Overview
The UTFToAnsi function takes a UTF encoded string and converts it into a 8-bit wide string. Such a conversion may result in loss of data.
Syntax/Parameters
Syntax
string = UTFToAnsi ( string data );
Parameters
data
A string containing UTF text to convert.
Return Value
Returns a string containing the converted string. Use the IsError, IsNotError and GetLastError functions to determine if an error occurred and to retrieve a formatted error code.
If characters cannot be converted, a error condition will be set with an error code in the lo word of the formatted error code.
Remarks
Characters are copied from 8- to 8-bits and those that are UTF are decoded. If sequence is not in valid UTF syntax, each original character is copied. Since the result is 8-bits wide, any characters too large to fit are replaced with Ctrl+? or 0x1F and counted as errors.
Aside from truncating characters over 0xFF, character positions are not translated.
