Maybe another solution will be to post a message to Xerces or Xalan Dev mail
list with your problem? If C1 supports that encoding then I think that
Xerces/Xalan does the job and there must be either a reason that support was
removed or they simply didn't add it at all until somebody will ask them
about it.
Also, as it's Open source, you can look at other encoder classes in Xalan,
write your own and send it to xalan-dev.

Konstantin Piroumian.
