Character Encodings Supported

The encodings supported on input depend entirely on your choice of XML parser.

On output, any encoding supported by the Java VM may be used.

There are some differences between the character encodings supported by the old java.io package and the new java.nio package. If the requested encoding is not supported by the java.nio package, then all non-ASCII characters will be represented using numeric character references. If the encoding is not supported by the java.io package, then Saxon will revert to using UTF-8 as the actual output encoding. A list of the character encodings supported in the java.nio package can be obtained by using the command java net.sf.saxon.charcode.CharacterSetFactory, with no parameters.
