- ASCII’s 128 characters are inadequate for many languages and special symbols. Extended ASCII codes and Unicode sprang from this constraint.
- ASCII cannot represent non-English characters or symbols since it was created for English. This makes multilingual text data representation difficult.
- Rich text formatting: ASCII only encodes plain text characters, not bold, italics, or underlining. This makes ASCII formatting harder.
- ASCII employs seven bits for each character, which is wasteful compared to alternative encoding systems. Inefficiency may increase file sizes and transmission times.
