The following table shows Windows-1252. Differences from ISO-8859-1 have the Unicode code point number below the character, based on the Unicode.org mapping of Windows-1252 with "best fit". A tooltip, generally available only when one points to the immediate right of the character, shows the Unicode code point name and the decimal Alt code.
The term "ANSI" is a misnomer because these Windows code pages do not comply with any ANSI (American National Standards Institute) standard; code page 1252 was based on an early ANSI draft that became the international standard ISO 8859-1, [3] which adds a further 32 control codes and space for 96 printable characters. Among other differences ...

The only difference between these code pages is that the code point values in the range 0x80–0x9F, used by ISO-8859-1 for control characters, are instead used as additional printable characters in Windows-1252 – notably for quotation marks, the euro sign and the trademark symbol among others. Browsers on non-Windows platforms would tend to ...
English: Windows-1252 character set, also known as "ANSI" (2 8 = 256 characters) shown in a 16×16 table. Color guide: Blue dots: indicate unused or control character (38 chars) Black characters: indicate basic printable characters (94 chars + space) Red characters: indicate code points that are C1 control codes in ISO-8859-1 (27 chars)
Under Windows, the Alt key is pressed and held down while a decimal character code is entered on the numeric keypad; the Alt key is then released and the character appears. The numerical code corresponds to the character’s code point in the Windows 1252 code page, with a leading zero; for example, an en dash (–) is entered using Alt+0150 ...
Microsoft has assigned code page 28605 a.k.a. Windows-28605 to ISO-8859-15. IBM has assigned code page 923 (CCSID 923) to ISO 8859-15. [2] [3] All the printable characters from both ISO/IEC 8859-1 and ISO/IEC 8859-15 are also found in Windows-1252. Since October 2016, less than 0.1% (actually currently less than 0.02%) of all web sites use ISO ...
In modern times, Unicode has replaced almost all uses of non-ASCII encodings. Because many Internet standards use ISO 8859-1, and because Microsoft Windows (for most languages used in Western Europe and the Americas) uses the CP1252 superset of ISO 8859-1, in general it is safe to assume that any byte stream that is not valid UTF-8 is in CP1252 ...
