Mac OS Icelandic is a character encoding used in Apple Macintosh computers to represent Icelandic text. It is largely identical to Mac OS Roman, except for the Icelandic special characters Ý, Þ and Ð which have replaced typography characters.
IBM uses code page 1286 (CCSID 1286) for Mac OS Icelandic.[1]
Layout
Each character is shown with its equivalent Unicode code point. Only the second half of the table (code points 128–255) is shown, the first half (code points 0–127) being the same as ASCII.
Letter Number Punctuation Symbol Other Undefined Differences from MacRoman
- ^¤ Before Mac OS 8.5, the character 0xDB mapped to currency sign (¤), Unicode character U+00A4.
- ^fi The character 0xBB maps to fi, Unicode character U+FB01 in the TrueType Mac Icelandic fonts.
- ^fl The character 0xBC maps to fl, Unicode character U+FB02 in the TrueType Mac Icelandic fonts.
- ^* The character 0xF0 is a solid Apple logo. Apple uses U+F8FF in the Corporate Private Use Area for this logo, but it is usually not supported on non-Apple platforms.
