The commonest cause of this is where so-called smart-quotes are used in the source file as these smart-quote characters are outside the normal ASCII character set and thus may well not exist on the target device. Getting the correct character encoding specified can fix this issue, as can the calibre option to handle smart-quotes at conversion time (by converting them to normal quotes).
Actually when looking at it in the Calibre reader the character is just omitted, writing "shouldnt" in stead of "shouldn't".
I've tried to use different settings related in the "Look & Feel" section when converting with no luck so far.
