>
>
> I have a confusing (to me )problem that I hope has an

> non-standard characters into my app by copy/pasting
> from Microsoft Word. These characters include the open
> quote and close quote symbols, as well as 1/2 and other
> weird characters.

> So, my users are able to paste Strings containing those
> characters into JTextArea's. Java String properties can
> successfully store the characters, and castor can
> marshal them to XML files. However, when I try to
> unmarshal, using the same mapping, objects and
> everything, I get this exception:
>
> java.io.UTFDataFormatException: Invalid byte 1 of
> 1-byte UTF sequence
>
> Every time I try to unmarshall a file which has one of
> these funky characters in it. So, my question is, why
> is Castor able to marshal, but not unmarshal these
> characters? Is there a way to filter the unwanted
> characters out before marshalling? Or is there a way to
> unmarshall the strange characters successfully? Do I
> change from UTF-8 to something else?

> I'm pretty confused, but I really need to find a
> solution to this. If anyone has any ideas, I'd sure
