Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardkation) and IEC (the
International Electrotechnical Commission) form the specialized System for
worldwide standardization. National bodies that are members of ISO or IEC
participate in the development of International Standards through technical
committees established by the respective organization to deal with particular
fields of technical activity. ISO and IEC technical committees collaborate in
fields of mutual interest. Other international organizations, governmental and
non-govemmental, in liaison with ISO and IEC, also take part in the werk
In the field of information technology, ISO and IEC have established a joint
technical committee, ISO/IEC JTC 1. Draft International Standards adopted by
the joint technical committee are circulated to national bodies for voting.
Publication as an International Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of
the national bodies casting a vote.
International Standard ISO/IEC 7350 was prepared by Joint Technical
Committee ISO/IEC JTC 1, h.ormation technology.
This second edition cancels and replaces the first edition (ISO 7350 : 1984),
which has been technically revised.
Annex A forms an integral part of this International Standard. Annex B is for
information only.

INTERNATIONAL STANDARD
- Registration of r.epertoires of
Information technology
.graphic characters from ISO/IEC 10367
1 Scope
This International Standard specifies the procedures to be followed in preparing, publishing, and
maintaining a register of graphic character repertoires which are composed entirely of graphic characters
from ISO 10367. The coded representation of the characters of such repertoires is not prescribed by the
entries in the register.
The SPACE Character is deemed to be available with any repertoire.
A numeric identifier shall be assigned to each registered repertoire. It is intended to be used as a
Parameter value of the controi function IDENTIFY GRAPHIC SUBREPERTOIRE (IGS) defined in ISO
6429. The numeric identifier may also be used in communication protocols and for visual identification by
human Operators.

Normative references
The following Standards contain provisions which, through reference in this text, constitute provisions of
this International Standard. At the time of publication, the editions indicated were valid. All Standards are
subject to revision, and Parties to agreements based on this International Standard are encouraged to
investigate the possibility of applying the most recent editions of the Standards indicated below. Members
of IEC and ISO maintain registers of currently valid International Standards.
ISO 6429 : 1988, InjOrmation processing - Control functions for 7-bit and 8-bit coded Character Sets.
ISO 6937 : 1983, Information processing - Coded Character sets for text communication.
Information technology - Standardized coded graphic Character sets for use in S-bit

Codes.
3 Definition of a repertoire
A repertoire shall consist of graphic characters from ISO/IEC 10367 as follows:
either:
the characters of the CO set, and
a)
the characters of any number of supplementary sets except that of ISO 6937;
b)
or:
the characters of the CO set, and
4
the characters of any number of the supplementary sets Chosen from the Arabic, Cyrillic, Greek,
4
Hebrew or Basic Box Drawings supplementary Sets, and
a subrepertoire of the repertoire associated with the supplementary set of ISO 6937,
e)
NOTE - The subrepertoires of ISO ~~037 already registered in accordance with the fit-st edition of ISO 7350 are not in accordance
with the above definition. They arc retained for reasons of continuity.
A repertoire may, after registration, be identified by a Single IGS selective Parameter value.

---------------------- Page: 5 ----------------------
ISO/IEC 7350:1991 (E)
The character SPACE is deemed to be always available with repertoire and, therefore, is not to be
a*Y
specified in the tables of repertoires submitted for registration.
The numeric identifier assigned to a repertoire in accordance with this International Standard shall serve
as an identification of the repertoire. Apart from such identification, registration shall not affect the Status
of the repertoire.
4 Registration Authority *)
4.1 The Registration Authority shall maintain a register of graphic Character repertoires and of their
assigned numeric identifiers. The contents of this register shall be available to ISO/IEC National Bodies
and organizations having liaison Status with ISOPIEC or with any of their technical committees or sub-
committees.
4.2 With regard numeric identifiers to repertoires and of subsequent additions of
to the assignment I of
repertoires to the nsib ilities of
registe r, the respo the Registration Authority shall be
to receive from Sponsoring Authorities proposals of graphic repertoires to be assigned numeric
4
identifiers ;
to ascertain that each proposal camplies with clause 3,
b)
to circulate proposals to the National Bodies of the sub-committee concerned with coding for a 3-
C)
month period for information and comments;
to take into account the comments received and where possible to integrate them in the final
d)
documents;
to assign the next available number to be used as a numeric identifier when the proposal camplies
e)
with the rules, unless the list of characters in the repertoire is identical to an already registered
repertoire in which case the existing numeric identifier shall be assigned;
to promulgate to all National Bodies and liaison organizations of ISO/IEC the graphic Character
f )
j repertoires and the numeric identifier that has been assigned to each repertoire;
to inform the appropriate Sponsoring Authority when a proposal does not comply with the rules.
g)
A critical concept in the registration process is that the contents of an individual registration is never
changed or deleted once it has been registered (except for editorial errors). This is contrasted with a
Standard which must be reviewed and/or revised periodically. When a Standard is revised that has been
used as the basis for a repertoire, the repertoire is not changed in the register. If the Sponsoring Authority
desires recognition of such a revision, a new registration proposal shall be made by following the normal
procedures.
4.3 If the set of characters of a proposal is identical with an already registered repertoire, the name of the
applicant shall be added in the register on the cover page of the already registered repertoire.
5 Sponsoring Authorities
5.1 Proposals for registration of repertoires may be made only by the following, which for the purposes
of this International Standard are Sponsoring Authorities:
any ISO/IEC technical committee or sub-committee;
4
l) ISO and IEC Councils have designated ECMA the European Computer Manufacturers Association,
114 Rue du Rhone, CH-1205 Geneva, Switzerlind, to act as Registration Authority.
