Abstract
saveascii acts as a wrapper for Stata' saveold command. When used in Stata 14 or younger, it additionally translates unicode characters in string variables, variable and value labels, characteristics, etc into extended ASCII. Thereby, it is designed to be a seamless replacement to Stata's regular saveold. This means that saveascii is to be used in the same way as saveold itself, and behaves exactly like saveold in Statas older than version 14. This program is incorporating ideas and concepts from Alan Riley of StataCorp, as presented on Statalist.
