Hello, I'm trying to run FOP 0.20.4 on an IBM OS/390 mainframe, running under Unix System Services. I also use Saxon as the XML parser and XSL transformer. I get this error: Error at byte 3 of file:/u/tsryana/LMR/StandardRpts/xsl/StandardReportsPDF.xsl: Error reported by XML parser: invalid

I fixed the problem below. When FTP'ing the style sheets to the mainframe, I had to use binary mode instead of ascii. Thanks to everybody for the replies!
