That is, inside the font the characters will be in the places specified by this encoding.
If you want a ß in your PDF to appear, TeX need to put a distinct piece of information into the output. The ß is not in the ascii code and thus with 8 bit encodings such as windows ansi or latin1 the code for the ß is different for each encoding. Assume you want to write the word draußen (which means 'outside'). When you write a German text, you'll get to know input encoding and output encoding really fast. There is for example the T1 (= ec, tex256) encoding which is widely used, but there are others such as the original OT1 font encoding. The font encoding is not that important, as long as all your characters are represented. So the input encoding is very important as a wrong input encoding makes it impossible for TeX to interpret the text correctly. If you need more than 256 different characters in one word you're out of luck. Old TeX can only hyphenate words from one font and therefore you need to squeeze all the characters you use (including all accented ones) into one font.
You need an input encoding to tell TeX how to interpret the contents of your text file, you need an font encoding for proper hyphenation.
