[[Microsoft]] defined a number of proprietary code page extensions which were subtly (or grossly) incompatible with those by other vendors. :

* [[Windows-1250|1250]] — East European Latin, used by [[Microsoft Windows]]

* [[Windows-1251|1251]] — [[Microsoft Windows]] [[Cyrillic alphabet|Cyrillic]] codepage

* [[Windows-1252|1252]] — West European Latin

* [[Windows-1253|1253]] — [[Greek alphabet|Greek]]
