--------------------------------------------------------------
My guess is that this could be fixed by adding something like:
org.apache.tika.sax.XHTMLContentHandler
{code}
@Override
protected boolean isInvalid(int ch) {
if(super.isInvalid(ch)) return true;
// These control chars are invalid in XHTML.
return 0x7F <= ch && ch <=0x9F;
}
{code}
so we exclude characters HTML does not like as well.
I placed that in and it seemed to work.
Should I make a pull request for that change?

> It looks like tika is asking the XML library to handle chracter 147 ie 0x93
> which is not allowed in HTML.
> This saxon XML library is not happy with that, I think the default java one
> doesn't complain when given the invalid character though, however tika is
> probably wrong to write out that character when writing XHTML.
