The Guobiao (GB) line of character encodings start with the Simplified Chinese charset GB 2312 published in 1980. Two encoding schemes existed for GB 2312: a one-or-two byte 8-bit EUC-CN encoding commonly used, and a 7-bit encoding called HZ [1] for usenet posts. [2]: 94 A traditional variant called GB/T 12345 was published in 1990.
UTF-8 is also the recommendation from the WHATWG for HTML and DOM specifications, and stating "UTF-8 encoding is the most appropriate encoding for interchange of Unicode" [4] and the Internet Mail Consortium recommends that all e‑mail programs be able to display and create mail using UTF-8.

As of October 2022, GBK is the third-most popular encoding served from China and territories (after UTF-8 and the subset GB 2312), with 1.9% of web servers serving a page that declares GBK. [3] However, all major web browsers decode GB2312-marked documents as if they were marked GBK, except for Safari and Edge on the label GB_2312. [4]
As of 2022, "supporting non-Chinese scripts continues to be optional" [27] (presumably for display/font support only; and in China, since the encoding is a full UTF). The standard is known to support English/ASCII and the "following non-Chinese scripts are recognized by GB 18030-2022: Arabic, Tibetan, Mongolian, Tai Le, New Tai Lue, Tai Tham ...
tries to render any character using all the fonts available on the system so multilingual support is generally good. The default rendering engine can support complex script rendering. Some Linux distributions ship with a Pango-based rendering engine which also does, although this may currently cause some display glitches with justified text. Opera
International email arises from the combined provision of internationalized domain names (IDN) [1] and email address internationalization (EAI). [2] The result is email that contains international characters (characters which do not exist in the ASCII character set), encoded as UTF-8, in the email header and in supporting mail transfer protocols.
The HTML standards forbid support of other encodings. [6] [7] [8] The Encoding Standard further stipulates that new formats, new protocols (even when existing formats are used) and authors of new documents are required to use UTF-8 exclusively. [9]
