Abstract
A method and computer program product are provided for implementing text conversion table compression. For implementing text conversion table compression, a character sequence is loaded from a full-size conversion table. The character sequence is checked for one of plurality of character patterns. Responsive to identifying one of the plurality of character patterns, the character sequence is compressed into a compressed conversion table for the identified one character pattern. Responsive to failing to identify one of the plurality of character patterns, the character sequence is copied into the compressed conversion table. The character sequence from the full-size conversion table is checked for one of the plurality of character patterns including a repeating character sequence, a ramping character sequence, and a repeating high byte character sequence.
