These code pages are often viewed as part of Microsoft’s [[embrace, extend and extinguish]] strategy towards open standards. Fortunately, the transition to full [[Unicode]] support now offers standards-based applications the possibility of full interoperability with the [[character repertoire]] of these documents without giving up standards compliance on output.
 
== Inoffical code pages ==
 
Early in the history of personal computers, when users didn't find their character encoding requirements met, inoffical
codepages were created using [[Terminate and Stay Resident]] utililies or even by re-programmed [[BIOS]] [[EPROMS]]s.
 
When more diverse character set support became available most of these code pages fade away, with some exceptions
like the [[Kamenicky]] or KEYBCS2 encoding for [[Czech]] and [[Slovak]].
