No. latin-1 (aka ISO-8859-1) is different from cp1250.

I've made diff between them (according to GNU recode):

$ diff <(recode -l latin1) <(recode -l cp1250)
< ISO-8859-1

- there are some common chars but they are nonetheless different.

Thank you for bringing up the subject. Now I know that cp1250 != latin1.
