Are you sure you specify explicitly the encoding at every place there is a (byte -> char) or (byte <- char) conversion or do you rely on defaults?

Welcome to the Ranch
Please always use the code button, which I have used on your code, and you can see how much better it looks

How do you know the text is not being read correctly? Try printing the individual chars as ints, like this

System.out.printf("0x%04x%n", (int)c);

For Tamil Scripts, you should get values between 0x0b80 and 0x0bff. If those values come out all right, it might be the terminal which cannot display the letters.

Oh,Thank you sir,but how can i convert my string to that int form...any method there???

[Campbell Ritchie]

That doesn’t convert a String to an int. It displays an int as a String.
