ISO 8859-6 , more precisely ISO / IEC 8859-6 also known as Arabic , is a standard for information technology, last updated by ISO in 1999 , for character encoding with eight bits and the sixth part of the ISO / IEC 8859 family of standards , based on code page 708 .
The characters that can be coded with seven bits correspond to US- ASCII with a leading zero bit. In addition to the 95 representable ASCII characters (20 16 –7E 16 ), ISO 8859-6 encodes 51 others (A0 16 , A4 16 , AC 16 –AD 16 , BB 16 , BF 16 , C1 16 –DA 16 , E0 16 - F2 16 ), i.e. a total of 146 out of a theoretically possible 256 (= 2 8 ). Positions 00 16 –1F 16 and 7F 16 –9F 16 are not assigned any characters in ISO / IEC 8859 and thus ISO / IEC 8859-6. This area was deliberately kept free in order to be able to use the corresponding bytes for device control or to ensure that these do not conflict with such control characters if the coding is insufficiently specified. The designation ISO-8859-6 (with hyphen) defined by the IANA stands for the combination of the characters of this standard with non-displayable control characters according to ISO / IEC 6429.
Although ISO 8859-6 contains all the letters of the Arabic alphabet , it is not used very often. The additional letters from Persian and other languages are completely absent. As of June 2014, 0.3% of all websites are using Windows-1256 , while ISO-8859-6 is used by less than 0.1%.

SP ( space ) at position 20 16 is the space , NBSP ( no-break space , including non-breaking space ) to position A0 16 is the non-breaking spaces and SHY ( soft hyphen ) at position AD 16 is the conditional hyphen , which normally is only visible at the end of the line.
