+The <literal>ngx_http_charset_module</literal> module adds the specified
+charset to the <header>Content-Type</header> response header field.
+In addition, the module can convert data from one charset to another,
+with some limitations:
+<list type="bullet">
+
+<listitem>
+conversion is performed one way — from server to client,
+</listitem>
+
+<listitem>
+only single-byte charsets can be converted
+</listitem>
+
+<listitem>
+or single-byte charsets to/from UTF-8.
+</listitem>
+
+</list>
+</para>
+
+</section>

+<section id="example" name="Example Configuration">
+
+<para>
+<example>
+    include        conf/koi-win;
+
+    charset        windows-1251;
+    source_charset koi8-r;
+</example>
+</para>

+<default>off</default>
+<context>http</context>
+<context>server</context>
+<context>location</context>
+<context>if in location</context>
+
+<para>
+Adds the specified charset to the <header>Content-Type</header>
+response header field.
+If this charset is different from the charset specified
+in the <link id="source_charset"/> directive, a conversion is performed.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+The parameter <literal>off</literal> cancels the addition of charset
+to the <header>Content-Type</header> response header field.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+A charset can be defined with a variable:
+<example>
+charset $charset;
+</example>
+In such a case, all possible values of a variable need to be present
+in the configuration at least once in the form of the
+<link id="charset_map"/>, <link id="charset"/>, or
+<link id="source_charset"/> directives.
+For <literal>utf-8</literal>, <literal>windows-1251</literal>, and
+<literal>koi8-r</literal> charsets it is sufficient to include the files
+<path>conf/koi-win</path>, <path>conf/koi-utf</path>, and
+<path>conf/win-utf</path> into configuration.
+For other charsets, simply making a fictitious conversion table works,
+for example:
+<example>
+charset_map iso-8859-5 _ { }
+</example>
+</para>
+
+</directive>
+
+
+<directive name="charset_map">
+<syntax block="yes"><value>charset1</value> <value>charset2</value></syntax>
+<default/>
+<context>http</context>
+
+<para>
+Describes the conversion table from one charset to another.
+A reverse conversion table is built using the same data.
+Character codes are given in hexadecimal.
+Missing characters in the range 80-FF are replaced with “<literal>?</literal>”.
+When converting from UTF-8, characters missing in a one-byte charset
+are replaced with “<literal>&amp;#XXXX;</literal>”.
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Example:
+<example>
+charset_map koi8-r windows-1251 {
+    C0 FE ; # small yu
+    C1 E0 ; # small a
+    C2 E1 ; # small b
+    C3 F6 ; # small ts
+    ...
+}
+</example>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+When describing a conversion table to UTF-8, codes for the UTF-8 charset should
+be given in the second column, for example:
+<example>
+charset_map koi8-r utf-8 {
+    C0 D18E ; # small yu
+    C1 D0B0 ; # small a
+    C2 D0B1 ; # small b
+    C3 D186 ; # small ts
+    ...
+}
+</example>
+</para>
+
+<para>
+Full conversion tables from <literal>koi8-r</literal> to
+<literal>windows-1251</literal>, and from <literal>koi8-r</literal> and
+<literal>windows-1251</literal> to <literal>utf-8</literal>
+are provided in the distribution files <path>conf/koi-win</path>,
+<path>conf/koi-utf</path>, and <path>conf/win-utf</path>.

+response header field.
+If conversion is enabled, a charset specified in the received
+response is used as a source charset.
+<note>
+It should be noted that if a response was received in a subrequest
+then conversion from the response charset to the main request charset
+is always performed regardless of the <literal>override_charset</literal>
