Jason,

Thanks.  I've already tried several ISO-8859-x and other variants  of 
the encoding attribute of the xsl:output method without success.  The 
resulting text still contains a two-character representation for the 
high-ascii value that is not being read properly by a RTF reader. 
I've also been experimenting with variations on the ansicpgx tag in 
the rtf header and well as wading through the rtf specs trying to see 
if there are other ways to handle this, but so far no luck.
