Hi Matthias There's multiple things that could be wrong here. The fact that you have an input XML file that says it is UTF-8 does not guarantee that the bytes are actually recorded as UTF-8. However we've read those bytes in - so at some stage they were converted to chars and we understood them - so that's likely not your problem.
More likely it's an error at the point where you save the output string as bytes - there may be a mismatch between the character encoding you use to do the output and the character encoding of the rest of the document (either explicitly or implicitly declared). Can you attach the parts of your code where you a) read in the instance XML file and b) output the string to your XSL-FO file and I'll try to help?
