ISO 8859-8 is an encoding of the ISO 8859 family for the Hebrew script. The ordering of characters in 8859-8 is logical, not visual; the Hebrew language is predominantly right-to-left, but there are important exceptions, such as numbers.
The ISO 8859-8 encoding incorporates the ASCII characters in the first 128 code points (0-127), including the C0 controls.
