Foreword
IS0 (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide
federation of national standards bodies (IS0 member bodies). The work of
preparing International Standards is normally carried out through IS0
technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for
which a technical committee has been established has the right to be
represented on that committee. International organizations, governmental
and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work. IS0
collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission
(IEC) on all matters of electrotechnical standardization.
Draft International Standards adopted by the technical committees are
circulated to the member bodies for voting. Publication as an International
Standard requires approval by at least 75 % of the member bodies casting
a vote.
International Standard IS0 11822 was prepared by Technical Committee
lnforma tion and documen ta bon, Subcommittee SC 4,
ISO/TC 46,
Computer applications in information and documentation.
Annexes A and B of this International Standard are for information only.

1 Scope
%.I This International Standard specifies a set of 90 graphic characters with their coded representations. It
consists of a code table and a legend showing character codes, graphics and character names. Explanatory notes
are also included. The character set is primarily intended for the interchange of information among data processing
systems and within message transmission systems.
1.2 These characters, together with characters in the international reference version of IS0 9036, constitute a
character set for the international interchange of bibliographic citations, including their annotations, in the Arabic
script. The sets may be used in a 7-bit or an 8-bit environment in accordance with lSO/IEC 2022.
1.3 This character set, with characters from IS0 9036 (see annex A), is intended for information in the following
languages:
Adig he Farsi Malay
Mopla h
Arabic Hausa
Avaric Kashmiri Pushto
Baluchi Kirg hiz Sindhi
Turkish
Berber Kurdish
Coptic Lahnda Uighur
Dargwa Urdu
