Windows-1250 is a code page used under Microsoft Windows to represent texts in Central European and Eastern European languages that use the Latin script. It is primarily used by Czech,[1] though Czech has now moved to UTF-8[2] and mostly abandoned this legacy encoding. It is also used for Polish, Slovak, Hungarian, Slovene, Serbo-Croatian (Latin script), Romanian (before a 1993 spelling reform), Rotokas and Albanian. It may also be used with the German language, though it's missing uppercase ẞ.[a] German-language texts encoded with Windows-1250 and Windows-1252 are identical.
This has been replaced by Unicode (such as UTF-8) far more than Windows-1252. As of October 2022, less than 0.04% of all web pages use Windows-1250.[3][4]
Windows-1250 is similar to
IBM uses code page 1250 (CCSID 1250 and euro sign extended CCSID 5346) for Windows-1250.[5][6][7][8][9][10][11]
