then put a C<=encoding I<encodingname>> command very early in the document so
that pod formatters will know how to decode the document. For
I<encodingname>, use a name recognized by the L<Encode::Supported>
-module. Some pod formatters may try to guess between a Latin-1 versus
+module. Some pod formatters may try to guess between a Latin-1 or
+CP-1252 versus
UTF-8 encoding, but they may guess wrong. It's best to be explicit if
you use anything besides strict ASCII. Examples:
Note that older Pod formatters might not recognize octal or
hex numeric escapes, and that many formatters cannot reliably
render characters above 255. (Some formatters may even have
-to use compromised renderings of Latin-1 characters, like
+to use compromised renderings of Latin-1/CP-1252 characters, like
rendering C<EE<lt>eacuteE<gt>> as just a plain "e".)
