It is not true that MSXML's XSLT processor always produces UTF-16. You
will get a UTF-16 encoded result if you use transformNode, because that
produces a BSTR which is UTF-16 by definition.

However, the transformNodeToObject method allows you to get the
transformation result returned as a DOM or streamed to an IStream
object, and thus get UTF-8, ISO-8859-1 or other encodings supported by
the MSXML processor.

There is more information on this in my article on MSXML at
http://www.perfectxml.com/articles/xml/XsltInMsxml.asp.

Cheers,
Stuart

MSXSL (default of XML Spy) will always produce utf-16, I believe.
