The method
public void javax.swing.JEditorPane.read(InputStream in, Object desc)
throws wrong IOException for Cp037 character encoding.

Here is a minimized test:
import java.io.*;
import javax.swing.*;

public class JEditorPaneTest01 {
    public static void main (String[] args) {
        JEditorPane editor = new JEditorPane();
        String str = "Test string";
        ByteArrayInputStream bais = new ByteArrayInputStream(str.getBytes());
        try {
            editor.read(bais, (Object) null);
        } catch (Exception e) {
            e.printStackTrace();
        }
        if(editor.getText().equals(str)) {
            System.out.println("OKAY");
        } else {
            System.out.println("Failed");
        }
    }
}

It means (converted from Cp037 to ASCII):
