8. reading encoded file    forums.oracle.com

When a decoder encounters a byte (or sequence of bytes) that doesn't represent a character in the given encoding, it appends a standard replacement character (usually '?') to the output. So if you decode the byte stream incorrectly, you can't necessarily reconstruct it from the decoded character sequence. You should always reread the bytes from the file.
