About iconv

Iconv converts text from one character encoding to another. Character encodings define how written characters are represented as bytes, and incompatible encodings can cause text to display incorrectly or become difficult to process. A conversion tool allows data to be translated between supported encodings so it can be used by a different program or system. Iconv is intended for this conversion task, often as part of command-line text processing. The supplied information does not specify which encodings are supported, how invalid input is handled, or what options are available for transliteration or error reporting. Iconv’s documented role is character-set conversion; exact behavior depends on supported encodings and configuration not described in the available product information.
