116 The following command converts MARC21/USMARC in MARC-8 encoding to
117 MARC21/USMARC in UTF-8 encoding. (Both input and output is in ISO2709).
119 yaz-marcdump -f MARC-8 -t UTF-8 -I marc21.raw >marc21.utf8.raw
123 The same records may be converted to MARCXML instead in UTF-8:
125 yaz-marcdump -f MARC-8 -t UTF-8 -X marc21.raw >marcxml.xml
