It is informally referred to as '''Latin/Arabic'''. It was designed to cover Arabic. Only nominal letters are encoded, no preshaped forms of the letters, so shaping processing is required for display. It does not include the extra letters needed to write most Arabic-script languages other than Arabic itself (such as Persian, Urdu, etc.).

'''ISO-8859-6''' is the IANA preferred charset name for this standard when supplemented with the C0 and C1 control codes from ISO/IEC 6429. The text is in logical order, so BiDi processing is required for display. Nominally '''ISO-8859-6''' ('''code page 28596''') is for "visual order", and '''ISO-8859-6-I''' ('''code page 38596''') is for logical order. But in practice, and required for HTML and XML documents, '''ISO-8859-6''' also stands for logical order text. There is also '''ISO-8859-6-E''' which supposedly requires directionality to be explicitly specified with special control characters; this latter variant is in practice unused. IBM has assigned '''code page/CCSID 1089''' to ISO 8859-6.<ref>{{cite web|title=Code page 1089 information document|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160317053319/http://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/cp/cp01089.html|archive-date=2016-03-17|url=https://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/cp/cp01089.html}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|title=CCSID 1089 information document|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160327025730/http://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/ccsid/ccsid1089.html|archive-date=2016-03-27|url=http://www-01.ibm.com/software/globalization/ccsid/ccsid1089.html}}</ref> It is an emulation for their AIX operating system.

ISO-8859-6 was used as the reference standard for encoding the Arabic script in Unicode<ref>{{cite web |title=The Unicode Standard v15.0 Chapter 9 |url=https://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode15.0.0/ch09.pdf}}</ref> but is now technologically obsolete.<ref>Computing and the Qurʾān - Some caveats, 2007, Thomas Milo</ref> Unicode is preferred in modern applications, especially on the Internet; meaning the dominant UTF-8 encoding for web pages (see also Arabic script in Unicode, for complete coverage, unlike for e.g. ISO-8859-6 or Windows-1256 that do not cover extras). Less than 0.0002% of all web pages use ISO-8859-6,<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://w3techs.com/technologies/details/en-iso885906/all/all|title=Usage Statistics of ISO-8859-6 for Websites, October 2022|website=w3techs.com|access-date=2022-10-25}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://w3techs.com/faq|title = Frequently Asked Questions}}</ref> and it is not even the third-most popular encoding option for Arabic on the web.

==History== ASMO 708 was devised by the now defunct Arab Standardization and Metrology Organization<ref name="Zghibi">{{Cite web |url=http://dn.revuesonline.com/gratuit/DN6_3-4_06_Zghibi.pdf |title=Le codage informatique de l'écriture arabe : d'ASMO 449 à Unicode et ISO/CEI 10646 |access-date=2017-02-20 |archive-date=2017-02-21 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170221105544/http://dn.revuesonline.com/gratuit/DN6_3-4_06_Zghibi.pdf |url-status=dead }}</ref> in 1986 to be the 8-bit standard to be used in Arabic-speaking countries. The design of this character set was inspired by the previous 7-bit standard — ASMO 449 — but it is not simply the 7-bit character set moved to the upper part; there are some differences.

ASMO 708 is a ''bidirectional'' character set. The lower part of the character set differs from standard ISO 646 in the digits and in some punctuation. Depending on the context (whether the numbers are within Latin script or Arabic script), the digits are rendered either as Latin digits or Arabic digits. Also, depending on the context, symmetrical punctuation marks are reversed, i.e., whenever there is an opening punctuation mark, the shape is rendered differently according to the direction of the script.

The upper part of the character set has only the Arabic letters, Arabic punctuation that is different from Latin punctuation, plus few other characters.

ASMO 708 was designed in close cooperation<ref>[https://www.ecma-international.org/publications/standards/Ecma-114.htm Standard ECMA-114]</ref> with ECMA, which adopted it as its own ECMA-114 standard in 1986. It was also approved as an ISO standard as '''ISO 8859-6'''.<ref>{{Cite web |title=ISO/IEC 8859-6:1999 |url=https://www.iso.org/standard/28250.html |access-date=2024-09-21 |website=International Organization for Standardization |language=en}}</ref> It was also registered in the International Register of Coded Character Sets as '''IR 127'''<ref>{{Cite iso-ir |number=127 |title=Right-Hand Part of Latin/Arabic Alphabet |sponsor=European Computer Manufacturers Association, Arabic Organization for Standardization and Metrology |date=1986-11-30}}</ref> in 1986.
