Well, what I can say is that the fact that you have XMLBeans gen'd for some elements and not for others doesn't make a difference. I am not familiar with the path engine that you are using (is it Xalan?). XmlBeans uses Saxon by default (if you have it on the classpath that is, see http://xmlbeans.apache.org for information on how to set up the classpath) so you may want to give that a try and see if you can switch to that. Alternatively, if you think that there is a problem in the DOM converter code (it is not clear from your post but I am assuming that you use DOM to hook up XMLBeans to Xalan) you can maybe dig a little deeper to find out some details and then we can look at it. I know from other people that they were able to use Xalan with XMLBeans, if that's of any encouragement!
