When the top bit was made available for representing character data, a total of 256 characters and control codes could be represented.

In the distant past, 8-bit implementations of the ASCII code set the top bit to zero or used it as a parity bit in network data transmissions. The majority of code pages in current use are supersets of ASCII, a 7-bit code representing 128 control codes and printable characters. However the system of referring to character encodings by a code page number remains applicable, as an efficient alternative to string identifiers such as those specified by the IETF and IANA for use in various protocols such as e-mail and web pages. However, it is now commonplace for operating system vendors to provide their own character encoding and rendering systems that run in a graphics mode and bypass this hardware limitation entirely. There was a selection of third-party code page fonts that could be loaded into such hardware.

The text mode of standard ( VGA-compatible) PC graphics hardware is built around using an 8-bit code page, though it is possible to use two at once with some color depth sacrifice, and up to eight may be stored in the display adaptor for easy switching. Most well-known code pages, excluding those for the CJK languages and Vietnamese, fit all their code-points into eight bits and do not involve anything more than mapping each code-point to a single character furthermore, techniques such as combining characters, complex scripts, etc., are not involved.

Additionally, a list of the names and approximate IANA ( Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) abbreviations for the installed code pages on any given Windows machine can be found in the Registry on that machine (this information is used by Microsoft programs such as Internet Explorer). IBM's current assignments are listed in their CCSID repository, while Microsoft's assignments are documented within the MSDN. At least one third-party vendor ( Oracle) also has its own different list of numeric assignments. Microsoft use of code page numbers for CJK encodings differs, and is noted in brackets where applicable.ДЄfter IBM and Microsoft ceased to cooperate in the 1990s, the two companies have maintained the list of assigned code page numbers independently from each other, resulting in some conflicting assignments. IBM code page numbers (CPGIDs and CCSIDs) used for CJK encodings. With the release of PC DOS version 3.3 (and the near identical MS-DOS 3.3) IBM introduced the code page numbering system to regular PC users, as the code page numbers (and the phrase 'code page') were used in new commands to allow the character encoding used by all parts of the OS to be set in a systematic way. The IBM origin of the numbering scheme is reflected in the fact that the smallest (first) numbers are assigned to variations of IBM's EBCDIC encoding and slightly larger numbers refer to variations of IBM's extended ASCII encoding as used in its PC hardware. IBM introduced the concept of systematically assigning a small, but globally unique, 16 bit number to each character encoding that a computer system or collection of computer systems might encounter. The multitude of character sets leads many vendors to recommend Unicode.

HP developed a series of symbol sets, each with an associated symbol set code, to encode both its own character sets and other vendorsвЂ™ character sets.

The terminology, however, is different: What others call a character set, HP calls a symbol set, and what IBM or Microsoft call a code page, HP calls a symbol set code. Hewlett-Packard uses a similar concept in its HP-UX operating system and its Printer Command Language (PCL) protocol for printers (either for HP printers or not). Vendors that use a code page system allocate their own code page number to a character encoding, even if it is better known by another name for example, UTF-8 has been assigned page numbers 1208 at IBM, 65001 at Microsoft, and 4110 at SAP. Originally, the code page numbers referred to the page numbers in the IBM standard character set manual, a condition which has not held for a long time. In the case when there is a plethora of character sets (like in IBM), identifying character sets through a number is a convenient way to distinguish them. The majority of vendors identify their own character sets by a name.

The term 'code page' originated from IBM's EBCDIC-based mainframe systems, but Microsoft, SAP, and Oracle Corporation are among the few vendors that use this term. (In some contexts these terms are used more precisely see Character encoding В§В Character sets, character maps and code pages.) Typically each number represents the binary value in a single byte. In computing, a code page is a character encoding and as such it is a specific association of a set of printable characters and control characters with unique numbers.
