Use the text output method not the xml one, and change your template so instead of <xsl:template match="Text"> <p align="left"> you have <xsl:template match="Text"> <p align="left"> and then proceed as before. (This will cut off your file at 1000 characters even if it is in the middle of an element name, That maybe not what you want, but it is what you asked for:-) Somehow I feel doing better which would mean proceeding just one node at a time and maintaining a running total of characters as a parameter is possible in xsl but likely to be unpleasant, unless someone else has a good trick to share...
