I'm not 100% sure to understand. Is this true? [1] You can type a German Umlautes normally with your keyboard. [2] When you save your DocBook file, you get something looking like random characters and you prefer to get "ü", "ä", etc. If this is true, Simply use Options|Options, Save section and replace default encoding "UTF-8" by "US-ASCII". That's it. After that, you can reopen your UTF-8 files and use "Save" or "Save As" to get "ü", "ä", etc. --- PS: There are other, more sophisticated, ways to achieve that. Please read "Always save these characters as entity references" http://www.xmlmind.com/xmleditor/_distrib/doc/help/com.xmlmind.xmleditapp.dialog.PreferencesEditorDialog.html#saveOptions to learn about them. ----- PS 2: This kind of email should be sent to xmleditor-support, as they are of general interest.
