ASCII-based standard character encoding
ISO 8859-16 MIME / IANA ISO-8859-16 Alias(es) iso-ir-226, latin10, l10[1] Language(s) Albanian, Gaj's Latin alphabet (Croatian, Bosnian, Serbian), Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Slovene (also French, German, Italian, Irish) Standard SR 14111:1998, ISO/IEC 8859-16:2001 Classification ISO 8859 (extended ASCII, ISO 4873 level 1) Extends US-ASCII Based on ISO-8859-15, ISO-8859-2ISO/IEC 8859-16:2001, Information technology — 8-bit single-byte coded graphic character sets — Part 16: Latin alphabet No. 10, is part of the ISO/IEC 8859 series of ASCII-based standard character encodings, first edition published in 2001. The same encoding was defined as Romanian Standard SR 14111 in 1998, named the "Romanian Character Set for Information Interchange".[2] It is informally referred to as Latin-10 or South-Eastern European. It was designed to cover Albanian, Croatian, Hungarian, Polish, Romanian, Serbian and Slovenian, but also French, German, Italian and Irish Gaelic (new orthography).
ISO-8859-16 is the IANA preferred charset name for this standard when supplemented with the C0 and C1 control codes from ISO/IEC 6429. Microsoft has assigned code page 28606 a.k.a. Windows-28606 to ISO-8859-16.[3][better source needed] FreeDOS has assigned code page 65500 to ISO-8859-16.[4]
Originally, ISO 8859-16 was proposed as a different encoding which was revised and renamed ISO 8859-0 by 1997, and is now ISO 8859-15 after a further revision.
It is based on ISO/IEC 8859-15 (Euro, Œ, Š, Ž, uppercase Ÿ) and partially on ISO/IEC 8859-2 (the Romanian-specific letters are placed according to it, but using S-comma and T-comma instead of cedilla).
Differences from ISO-8859-1 have the Unicode code point number below the character.
