hi everybody! thank you very much for the help. but i still have the problem. the html and pdf output is ok. as soon as i produce text-output i get UTF-8 code although i forced cocoon to produce iso 8859-1 by using:
<map:serializer logger="sitemap.serializer.text" mime-type="text/text" name="text" src="org.apache.cocoon.serialization.TextSerializer"> <encoding>iso-8859-1</encoding> </map:serializer> the saved text-file is indeed UTF-8 coded because the unix-command 'file' confirms the result. right now i am using a workaround by reencoding the saved file via: 'recode UTF-8 file.txt' i tested for quite a long time. this is a working solution without cocoon 2.0.3. maybe there is more luck with cocoon 2.1. wolfgang weigel *Wolle, please check this.
