NSString - Unicode to ASCII equivalent

Question

I need to convert NSString in unicode to NSString in ASCII changing all local characters: Ą to A, Ś to S, Ó to O, ü to u, And so on...

What is the simplest way to do it?

Answer 1

-[NSString dataUsingEncoding:NSASCIIStringEncoding allowLossyConversion:YES].

All of the examples you gave are handled as you want. Looks like characters with no obvious analog, such as ☃, go to '?'.
