Thank you. Interesting. If this works well, then at the least we could just use Spring's filter and stop maintaining our own. I'm thinking that our filter as written could never have done what you expect, and the effect was produced elsewhere. Our filter only sets the request's encoding. Spring's filter is documented to also set the response's encoding when forceEncoding=true. Perhaps BitstreamReader should just set the encoding on the response? -- Mark H.
