No, this isn't the same thing at all. saxon:format="TEXT" means you want the
output to be a plain text file with no XML tags or XML markup. At present
SAXON gives you no control over the character encoding of this text file,
it's the Java default. 

result-encoding says you want the output to be an XML file in which the
character encoding is iso-8859-1.
