ISO 8859-1 is part 1 of ISO 8859, a standard character encoding defined by ISO. It encodes characters as 8 bits and can be used to represent the alphabet and other important characters for storing English, French, German and Spanish texts on computers. Also known as Latin-1, it is the standard encoding used by the X Window System on most Unix machines. Microsoft Windows uses a superset of ISO-8859-1, and Macintosh computers use a different encoding.
