'''ISO/IEC 8859''' is a family of 8-bit character encodings that are extensions of [[ASCII]]. All of them reserve code values 80 through 9F (128 through 159 decimal) for control characters, though a lot of websites and e-mail programs bogusly indicate one of these encodings for content that actually uses printable characters in those positions via some proprietary system-specific encoding (usually Windows). The ISO 8859 encodings are the following:

ISO/IEC 8859 is a family of 8-bit character encodings that are extensions of ASCII. All of them reserve code values 80 through 9F (128 through 159 decimal) for control characters, though a lot of websites and e-mail programs bogusly indicate one of these encodings for content that actually uses printable characters in those positions via some proprietary system-specific encoding (usually Windows). The ISO 8859 encodings are the following:
