Character 0x1A is indeed not allowed in an XML document. See e.g. https://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#charsets One reason this can happen is if a document is in some character set, such as a DOS codepage or early Apple charset, that (mis-)uses some of the control characters, such as this one, to be printable characters. Anotheris conversion errors, and another is attempts to include binary data. In other words it's usually a file encoding problem. If the document doesn't actually contain a byte of that value, though, it's another problem... -- Liam Quin, https://www.delightfulcomputing.com/ Available for XML/Document/Information Architecture/XSLT/ XSL/XQuery/Web/Text Processing/A11Y training, work & consulting.
