I have received XML documents in German.
Letters with Umlauts are represented by 
control characters at the
ASCII level, for example, &#228; for the
small letter a with Umlaut. So far so good.

However, if I transform these documents to
another XML dialect (output method is xml),
the &#228; is changed to Ã¤, which my editor
changes to &Atilde;&curren;, making the German
text difficult to read.

A conversion to HTML from the transformed XML 
outputs &auml; correctly.
I am using XSLT with XT on NT, with encoding set to utf-8 
all the way.

Though this may be a bug/feature in the editor I am using,
is there any way of preserving the original
representation (the &#228; notation) from input
to output XML?

Thanks,
