The NeXT character set—also referred to as NeXTSTEP encoding, WE8NEXTSTEP, or next-multinational—was implemented on NeXT workstations running the NeXTSTEP and OPENSTEP operating systems beginning in 1988. This character encoding is based on the Adobe Systems' PostScript character set (known as Adobe Standard Encoding), with additional characters from ISO 8859-1 (Latin 1) filling unused code points, although these are assigned to different positions.

Character set

Displayed below is the NeXT character set alongside their respective Unicode code points. The range from 00hex to 7Fhex corresponds closely to ASCII.
