I don't see an option that let you select the type of character encoding of the file you are saving. I mean, I see only the choice of default (what does it mean with default?) or utf8 and 16 but what if I would like to use an encoding for example of iso8859-1? Other editors let you choose from a large variety of character encoding...here I see only default, ascii and utf.
Codepage support and conversion on a per file basis is currently not supported by UltraEdit or UEStudio. It's planned for the next release v5.50 of UEStudio and maybe also for next release v12.10 of UltraEdit.
Currently you can only select the codepage at Advanced - Set Code Page/Locale. See help of UE about this menu item for details which influence this setting has. You have to manually write the character encoding info into your HTML, XHTML, ... files.

Great...there I can select for example my iso8859-1 encoding but when I select save as and then I see "default" as encoding what does it mean? It means that it uses that iso8859-1 that I choosed?
Have you read the help about Advanced - Set Code Page/Locale?
The file is saved like you see it in the edit window. Code pages are used only for defining which font glyph should be used for the bytes 0 - 255 and additionally which characters can be converted from a larger character set like Unicode to the current character set. However, the code page has no influence on saving the bytes of a non Unicode file. Byte with value 166 is saved always as byte with value 166, independent which code page is used. But how a byte with value 166 is interpreted and displayed is defined by the code page - see UltraEdit power tip Unicode text and Unicode files in UltraEdit.
