Simon,

A HUGE thank you! Yes, after spending hours
trying to figure this out, all I needed to
do was change this:

transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING,"UTF-8");

to this:

transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING,"ISO-8859-1");

I think that the best is to omit this command completely. Then
transformer will use encoding specified in stylesheet by <xsl:output
encoding="..."/> and you can be sure that there will not be encoding
mismatch.
