Hi G. Long, Most likely, the problem is in your application. Lucene does not change the value stored in the index. For stored fields, Lucene does not deal with entities, it's just binary data to Lucene. From your application perspective, it is String in -> String out. I think maybe you strip the entities when you output the data to the user?
