Technically, any ASCII characters are represented in UTF-8 as pure ASCII, 8-bits per byte, no funny encoding. If your files are pure ASCII anyway, no conversion's needed. And any characters which aren't, already have no ASCII equivalent -- they'd just be stripped out.
In other words, content -- or at least punctuation -- could be lost. Are you positive you want the originals overwritten?
