 ## Changelog
+- #### 2.9.3 released 13 November 2025.
+   - [#792](https://github.com/AbsaOSS/cobrix/pull/792) Added EBCDIC to ASCII encoders for all single byte code pages.
+     ```scala
+     df.write
+       .format("cobol")
+       .mode(SaveMode.Overwrite)
+       .option("copybook_contents", copybookContents)
+       .option("ebcdic_code_page", "cp273") // Specify the EBCDIC code page to use

+     ```
+   - [#795](https://github.com/AbsaOSS/cobrix/pull/795) Added the ability to process EBCDIC files in-place and convert them to VRL format.
+     ```scala
+     import za.co.absa.cobrix.cobol.processor.{CobolProcessingStrategy, CobolProcessorContext, SerializableRawRecordProcessor}
+     import za.co.absa.cobrix.spark.cobol.SparkCobolProcessor
+
+     SparkCobolProcessor.builder
+       .withCopybookContents(copybook)
+       .withProcessingStrategy(CobolProcessingStrategy.ToVariableLength) // Convert files to RDW-based VRL format
+       .withRecordProcessor(...)
+       .load(inputPath)
+       .save(outputPath)
+     ```
