Cork encoding

The Cork or T1 encoding is a character encoding. It is named after city of Cork in Ireland, where during a TeX Users Group (TUG) conference, a new encoding was introduced for LaTeX. It contains 256 characters supporting west and east-European languages with the Latin alphabet. It is the default encoding in many TeX installations.

An overview of encodings in LaTeX is found in http://www.tex.ac.uk/tex-archive/macros/latex/doc/encguide.pdf
