Ever wanted to convert a string from UTF-8 to ASCII in order to use it in a text file or to post it on another on another website? Below you will find a static function that you can use from anyware in your Visual Studio solution to convert a string from UTF-8 to ASCII. It takes as a parameter the UTF-8 string and return the same string in ASCII.
public static string UTF8toASCII(string text)
{
System.Text.Encoding utf8 = System.Text.Encoding.UTF8;
Byte[] encodedBytes = utf8.GetBytes(text);
Byte[] convertedBytes =
Encoding.Convert(Encoding.UTF8, Encoding.ASCII, encodedBytes);
System.Text.Encoding ascii = System.Text.Encoding.ASCII;
return ascii.GetString(convertedBytes);
}
