My impression was that almost all of the base iso-8859-1 characters display exactly the same as the utf-8 ones.
The alphabet, numbers, spaces, basic punctuation....
I've seen books on sale in the store, where publishers use the iso-8859-1 format, so I presume that utf-8 or utf-16 isn't a requirement, but iso-8859-1 is also a valid option...
I mean, I would want to make a distinction between encoding 'preferences' and 'requirements'. Requirements mean that unless it's not there, the book will error or not display on an ebook reading device.
