[jdom-interest] Question regarding encoding

[Sinkinson,Andrew [NCR]]

  Hi All,

  Why are my French apostrophe being converted to questions marks ?
  If I have the following input Xml document:

  <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<record>
    <description>L'architecture de GI/TI </description>
</record>

  Parse the document with jdom and write it to the file system with the
following format
  Format format = Format.getCompactFormat().setEncoding("ISO-8859-1");

  XMLOutputter out = new XMLOutputter(format);
  FileWriter f = new FileWriter(new File(filename));
  out.output(doc, f);

  Here is the output:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?>
<record><description>L?architecture de GI/TI</description></record>

  Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 Thanks,
  Andrew
