I strongly urge you to fix this. If your files are encoded using
Shift_JIS, then the XML declaration must specify "Shift_JIS" and not
"UTF-8". Note that my recommendation is not related to our editor but
rather is a general one.

XMLmind XML Editor (XXE) does not support the Shift_JIS encoding.

Using the Shift_JIS encoding in Japanese XML files is not mandatory (in
fact, for general interchange, it is recommended to use the UTF-8
encoding). That is, you can perfectly author your *new* Japanese
documents with XXE using the UTF-8 encoding.

If you want to be able to edit your *existing* Shift_JIS XML documents
with XXE, you'll have to transcode them from Shift_JIS to UTF-8 first
using a third party utility. I'm sorry not to be able to give you a
pointer to such an utility.

DocBook and XHTML are both ``XML-based'' formats. PDF is not
``XML-based''. Therefore you cannot used XXE to edit PDF files.
