Each connection can set the encoding to whatever they like. Something I find useful is to setup the DB as UTF-8 but then do: ALTER DATABASE foo SET client_encoding = latin9; which sets the default for the DB, or ALTER USER bar SET client_encoding = latin9; Which lets you set the defauts for each user. This means that old scripts can work unchanged but newer scripts can choose UTF-8 if they want it.
