I have tested transforming these types of characters. You first need
to convert them to numeric references. Once this is done (Let's say
you use UniRed where a chinese charcter becomes "&# 2303;" with a
utf-8 character setting), then you can transform your xml document
into HTML.
None of that should be needed. You should be able to use any unicode
character in the input without doing any such trasnformations. If teh
character is available in teh output encoding it will appear as
character data, if not it will apear as a character reference. The XSLt
system will do this automatically.
