>I want to produce an xml document which will be in utf-8 encoding. Utf-8 is a unicode encoding as is utf-16. Utf-8 and utf-16 is a representation of unicode characters using one or more bytes. The first 127 characters of utf-8 are represented by the same bytes as ascii. Thats why you never have problems with utf-8 and pure latin characters. Windows 98 uses for greek characters the windows-1253 CodePage which is the default codepage in my pc.
