ISO/IEC 8859-16:2001

This part of ISO/IEC 8859 specifies a set of 191

coded graphic characters identified as Latin

alphabet No. 10.

This set of coded graphic characters is intended for

use in data and text processing applications and

also for information interchange.

The set contains graphic characters used for

general purpose applications in typical office

environments in at least the following languages:

Albanian, Croatian, English, Finnish, French,

German, Hungarian, Irish Gaelic (new orthography),

Italian, Latin, Polish, Romanian, and

Slovenian.

This set of coded graphic characters may be

regarded as a version of an 8-bit code according to

ISO/IEC 2022 or ISO/IEC 4873 at level 1.

This part of ISO/IEC 8859 may not be used in

conjunction with any other parts of ISO/IEC 8859.

If coded characters from more than one part are to

be used together, by means of code extension

techniques, the equivalent coded character sets

from ISO/IEC 10367, or their corresponding G1

sets from the ISO International Register of Coded

Character Sets to be Used with Escape

Sequences, should be used instead within a

version of ISO/IEC 4873 at level 2 or level 3.

The coded characters in this set may be used in

conjunction with coded control functions selected

from ISO/IEC 6429. However, control functions are

not used to create composite graphic symbols from

two or more graphic characters (see clause 6).

NOTE ? ISO/IEC 8859 is not intended for use with

Telematic services defined by ITU-T. If information coded

according to ISO/IEC 8859 is to be transferred to such

services, it will have to conform to the requirements of

those services at the access-point.
