Legacy Encoding Methods

In most cases, EUC encoding is simply ISO-2022 encoding with the high bits set and
without escape or shi sequences of any kind.

Algorithms for code conversion are dis-
cussed in Chapter 9.
Locale-Specic Legacy Encoding Methods
Included here are descriptions of legacy encoding methods used for specic locales. I
nd it intriguing that all ve of these CJKV locales each have at least one locale-specic
encoding method. Table 4-61 lists some CJKV character set standards, along with their
locale-specic encoding methods.

JIS X 0213:2004 is explicitly excluded from this table, because the Shift-JIS encoding for the characters specic to JIS X 0213:2004, meaning b.
those characters beyond JIS X 0208:1997, is Informative, not Normative. JIS X 0213:2004 is expected to be implemented through the use of
Unicode and its encodings.

some also provide encoding examples similar to those found in earlier sections. Compari-
