It can not copy information that it doesn't have. The DTD goes along
with white space inside tags and whether " or ' is used to delimit
attribute values. <xsl:copy-of on

<!DOCTYPE x []>
<x
foo =
'bar'

</x>

will produce


<x foo="bar"/>

and the syntactic details in the input are just not visible to XSLT.
