You can use a traditional-to-simplified converter (e.g. mafan module in Python).

In general Chinese data should ideally be kept in traditional characters if the source is already in traditional characters, because automatic conversion is reliable from traditional to simplified, but not from simplified to traditional, since simplified has collapsed a number of characters together that are differentiated in traditional (the mafan module mentioned above also has a simplified-to-traditional converter function, but it's not reliable for this very reason).

@ermanh Many thanks. I know how to do this.
