To simplify the exchange of computerized documents between countries, the International
Standards Organization (ISO) defined a new code page called 850, for use across national
boundaries. This 850 code page can be used instead of local code pages and reduces the
need for code page switching because the sender and the recipient always use the same
code page.
This code page is also known as DOSLatin1 (Western Europe). Latin1 covers most West
European languages such as French, Spanish, Catalan, Basque, Portuguese, Italian,
Albanian, Rhaeto-Romanic, Dutch, German, Danish, Swedish, Norwegian, Finnish,
Faroese, Icelandic, Irish, Scottish, and English. It covers the entire North American
continent, Australia, and much of Africa.
Refer to Section 5.1.2.4 for more details on SW4 settings.
