Ebcdic to ascii file translation woes

Question

I am trying to convert an ebcdic file into an ascii file but i am running into some difficulties.
The translation works fine, but it outputs everything onto one line when opened up in notepad on NT, with a symbol "ٱ" where a new line should be. When the same file is pasted into WordPad these sybols are interpreted into new lines.
Is there a way i can get the sybols replaced by new lines when opened up in Notepad?
import java.io.*;
class FileReaderDemo2
     public static void main (String args[])
          try
               //create and input stream reader froman ebcdic file                    
               FileInputStream inputStream = new FileInputStream ("input.ebc");
               //convert from ebcidic to unicode
               InputStreamReader inputReader = new InputStreamReader(inputStream,"Cp500");
               //attach a buffer to it
               BufferedReader buffReader = new BufferedReader (inputReader);
               System.out.println("Character Encoding is: " + inputReader.getEncoding());          
               //output file in ascii Cp1252 from unicode
               OutputStreamWriter outWriter = new OutputStreamWriter(new FileOutputStream("Output2.txt"),"Cp1252");
               String str = null;
               while ((str = buffReader.readLine()) !=null)
                    outWriter.write(str +"\n");
               inputReader.close();
               inputStream.close();
               outWriter.close();
          catch (Exception e)
               System.out.println("Exception: " + e);

Thanks for that.
I need to do the reverse now, so i have a ascii file i need to convert to ebcidic. Once again the conversion works ok but the output is all on one line.
I've tried
outWriter.write(str + "\n");
and
outWriter.write(str + "\r\n");
and
outWriter.write(str + System.getProperty("line.separator"));
But none of them seem to work.
