Windows-1257 is a character encoding standard used to represent text in the Baltic script. It was introduced by Microsoft in the Windows operating system and is based on ISO 8859-13. Windows-1257 supports a range of characters and symbols used in the Baltic script, including the Lithuanian and Latvian alphabets, diacritics, and various punctuation marks.

Windows-1257 is widely used in the Baltic countries for text processing, including in word processing software, spreadsheets, and databases. It is also used for the representation of Baltic text in other countries. However, it is important to note that Windows-1257 may not provide full support for all of the characters used in the Baltic script and may cause issues when dealing with text in certain scripts.
