Just to summarize my understanding of the responses to this thread: * Saxon outputs the XML in utf-8 as requested. * Your perception that Saxon outputs in "Western European" is based on asking Internet Explorer what it thinks the encoding is. * Internet Explorer is confused because the output is actually being treated as HTML rather than as XML, which means that the XML encoding declaration is ignored. (And the HTML encoding declaration, of course, is not there because you asked for method="xml").
