The encodable with seven -bit US-ASCII characters correspond with leading zero bits. In addition to the 95 displayable ASCII characters (2016 - 7E16 ) codes ISO 8859-6 51 more ( A016, A416, AC16 - AD16, BB16, BF16, C116 - DA16, E016 - F216 ), for a total of 146 theoretically possible 256 ( = 28). Positions 0016- 1F16 and 7F16, 9F16 are assigned in ISO / IEC 8859, and thus the ISO / IEC 8859-6 no characters. The defined by IANA as ISO -8859 -6 ( with hyphen) means the combination of the characters of this standard with control characters can not be represented in accordance with ISO / IEC 6429th

Although ISO 8859-6 contains all the letters of the Arabic alphabet, but is not used very often. The additional letter from the Persian and other languages ​​are completely absent.
