It looks very much like
1) in the XML header you claim the document is ISO-8859-1 encoded, while really
2) it is not. I can see that one character, that ‘ , was decoded as three 
(’). Had the document really been encoded with ISO-8859-1, any decoding would 
have ended up with at most one character (because ISO-8859-1 does not use 
multibyte characters).

try to replace “iso-8859-1” in the xml header with “utf-8”, does that work?
