Hi, The nodes that you import use S97 as a namespace prefix while the target document sets this namespace as default. DOM considers namespace prefixes in element names important and preserves them. If you want the imported fragment to use the namespace declaration from the root element, you will need to make sure the same prefix is used in both places.
