Questions tagged [cp1252]

CP-1252 or Windows-1252 is a character encoding of the Latin alphabet.

The windows 1252 codepage is used by the windows operating system to display a number of latin based languages. This character set mimics the ISO 8859-1 (Latin-1) character set, except it varies with the characters in positions in the range of 128-159.

The set of languages represented by CP1252 include English, Spanish, and various Germanic/Scandinavian languages.
