Fabien, FYI - "µ" is an XML ENTITY which is valid XML.
It sounds like you are close to working through your problem. In following this thread, I wondered if you could strip the RTF into a text file and then use XInclude. It may get messy since it sounds like you have a lot of bits of text which would equate to a lot of files but that could work. Regards, Dean Nelson In a message dated 06/25/10 08:22:47 Pacific Daylight Time, [email protected] writes: Well... I am using the apache commons lang package to encode the special characters (the one remaining after the rtf conversion, like µ). It encodes 'µ' as 'µ'. If I want to have an Unicode hex encoding, I have to stop using it and write my own... Unless there is another package I can use ? For my understanding, µ is valid HTML, not XML, that why it is further encoded by the XSLt to 'µ' right ? Thanks a lot for your help, Dave.

Once it's in XML, & => & etc. If you want alpha, then use unicode character level encoding, e.g. & # x 0 3 b 1 ; (spaced in case it is messed up) that are showing up (which is > perfectly normal) but are not displayed by the browser as their > entity counterpart (here an alpha symbol).

Thanks a lot in advance Best regards, Fabien Once in XML that alpha as a character entity is just as valid as any other character. Prior to that, it's up to you.
