CR 13928:2000
(Main)Information Technology - Guide to the use of character set standards in Europe
General Information
- Abstract
The technical scope of this guide is primarily limited to official character set standards promulgated by ISO/IEC and CEN, as opposed to official telecommunications standards and manufacturer standards. However, an overview of all types of standards is given in section 7. The guide furthermore concentrates on European issues; thus character set standards for non-European languages are not covered. The guide is mainly intended as an introduction for people who need to familiarise themselves with the concept of character sets and their coding.
