ISO 8859-8 , more precisely ISO / IEC 8859-8 also known as ISO Hebrew , is a standard for information technology for character encoding with eight bits and the eighth part of the ISO / IEC 8859 family of standards, last updated by ISO in 1999 .

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 8859-8 encodes 60 others (A0 16 , A2 16 –BE 16 , DF 16 , E0 16 –FA 16 , FD 16 –FE 16 ), i.e. in total 155 of the 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 therefore ISO / IEC 8859-8. 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-8859-8 (with hyphen) defined by the IANA stands for the combination of the characters in this standard with non-displayable control characters in accordance with ISO / IEC 6429.

ISO 8859-8 contains all consonants of the Hebrew alphabet , but not the vowel characters.

SP (20 16 , "space") is the space, NBSP (A0 16 , "non-breaking space") is the fixed space and AD 16 is the conditional hyphen ( SHY , "soft hyphen"), which is normally only at the end of a line is visible. The left-to-right and right-to-left markers (U + 200E and U + 200F) are located at positions FD 16 and FE 16 .
