I don't know of a conversion routine that will do exactly what DOS does, but if you need to use 8.3 filenames and receive them as vfat32 filenames then you could do a conversion yourself before using the name. As long as the conversion is 8.3 compliant it does not matter that your conversion routine ends up with a different name.
Having converted it, then use the name and you write out the 8.3 filename, never the long one. Note the translation between the two in an array or db table.
