4.3 Supported Codepages
- What is codepage?
Used by the system to encode and interpret string characters. Codepage formats are not the
same for each language. Some languages, such as Japanese have multibyte characters,
while others, such as English and German, need only one byte to represent each character.
- Filename Encoding of FAT File System
This is known as an 8.3 file name, a short file name using codepage encoding. The FAT file
system also supports file names that can be up to 255 characters long. This is known as a long
file name using Unicode (UTF-16) encoding.
