[xep-support] Character set problems Linux/Windows

I have an FO file that contains non ASCII characters (left quote, right
quote, bullets). The file gets formatted correctly on Windows but the
same file has problems getting formatted correctly on Linux. These
special characters get substituted to other funny characters. My FO file
starts with:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<fo:root xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
         xmlns:fox="http://xml.apache.org/fop/extensions"
         xmlns:html="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
         hyphenate="false"
         text-align="start"
         writing-mode="lr-tb">
.
.
.
</fo:root>

The characters displayed while running on Linux are actually UTF-8
rather than windows-1252. So it seams that XEP ignores the encoding
directive and assume the encoding is whatever is the default for that
OS. Any way to fix this ?

Regards,

Alain
