Lance Bader commented on MPXDOC-195:
------------------------------------

NOTE:  Although it has no affect on this problem, I have discovered a defect in 
the test case I supplied.  The properties files in src\i18nBundles have not 
been converted to the required ASCII encoding.  I expected the translators to 
return ASCII encoded files, but they used some native format instead.  As a 
result, the navigation items, the section, headers, and the subsection headers 
will appear wrong, even if the rest of the page is generated correctly.

I will attach an updated test case when I have converted the properties files 
correctly.  I first have to find out what encoding the translators used (it is 
obviously not UTF-8) and fix them with native2ascii.

> When I attempt to build UTF-8 encoded HTML from UTF-8 XML source files, every 
> special character is scrambled.
> We are using the xDoc plugin to generate the HTML for our on-line user guide. 
>  We sent the English source files and the default properties file to 9 
> translation centers.  The translators returned valid UTF-8 source, but xDoc 
> will not generate valid UTF-8 HTML.
> I have attached a very small subset of our product that demonstrates this 
> problem.  See the README.txt file within the ZIP archive for information 
> about how to use the supplied scripts to build the output for German, 
> English, French, and Traditional Chinese and view the result.
