Thank you. However, the problem was of a different nature. I was given a file and told that it is in UTF-8 encoding, but it appeared that it wasn’t. I converted file to UTF-8 and everything started working as expected.

But Windows does not use UTF-8 by standard I think it uses CP1252 or similar. And a command window (cmd) uses the windows setting. When you write a file in utf-8 an then display it in the command window you will see differencies as you described.

It is working fine except one thing. German characters are being replaced. For example instead of leiüzig I see lei�zig Same replacement I see in debugger when I stop it after reading a line from file. I do have in my code Reader rdr = BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(new FileInputStream(file), "UTF-8")); Later this Reader is used to build CSVReader (from OpenCsv library). I want to be sure that that problems are in my code and not how debugger displays it. I haven’t delt with foreign characters encoding before, so please forgive my ignorance. I would gladly accept advice on my code as well. I am running NB12.5 on OpenJDK 16 on Windows, but application is running in Java 8 SE. Gary Greenberg Staff Software Engineer
