First, shame on Xerces for not throwing a SAXParseException in this case. This means that we do not show the file in which the error happens. I have fixed this in OXF, which will now show the file name.
Your actual problem is very typical. By default (without encoding specified in the XML declaration), XML is encoded in UTF-8. If you use an editor which is not encoding-aware and typically assuming an ISO-8859-1 encoding, and you insert characters such as accented letters, curly quotes, etc., you will get this error. As a workaround, you can put an XML declaration with the ISO-8859-1 encoding at the top of your XML file:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
You can also use an editor which knows how to handle UTF-8.
In your case it is also possible that somebody inserted incorrect characters by accident, and you can just remove those and then decide which encoding you want to use. UTF-8 gives you the whole range of Unicode, while ISO-8859-1 gives you a limited set of characters that work for the Western languages.
I hope this helps,
