What is UTFCast

UTFCast is a Unicode converter that lets you batch convert all text files to UTF encodings with just a click of your mouse. You can use it to convert a directory full of text files to UTF encodings including UTF-8, UTF-16 and UTF-32 to an output directory, while maintaining the directory structure of the original files. It doesn't even matter if your text file has a different extension, UTFCast can automatically detect text files and convert them.

UTFCast lets you:

  • Extend your application to an international audience.
  • Convert text files of unlimited size to Unicode in seconds.
  • Preserve the original directory structure of your text files.
  • Automatically detect and convert text files.

The Professional Edition

With only a few mouse clicks, you can unify various codepages in a directory and extend them to one of the commonly used Unicode standard. You can mix up your directory with ANSI text files, Windows-1251 text files, Shift-JIS text files and even binary files; UTFCast Professional will automatically pick them up and convert them to UTF-8, UTF-16 or UTF-32 in batch mode.

The UTFCast Professional edition leverages the advanced UTFCast technology to recognize binary files and over 30 codepages. Its advanced codepage streaming engine provides the ability to handle extra-large sized text files and convert over 40 megabytes of text per second with full support for multiple-core CPUs.

The Express Edition

The UTFCast Express edition is a UTF-8 converter built with the basic UTFCast technology. It can automatically pick up ASCII and UTF-16 text files and convert them to UTF-8 encoding. You only need to select a source folder and a target folder, your files will then be converted and arranged as the same as the source folder.
