sorry I see you did post your code.


xmlns:fo="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Format"
xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"
xmlns:fn="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-functions"
xmlns:xdt="http://www.w3.org/2005/02/xpath-datatypes"


why have you declared these namespaces? Yout project doesn't appear to
use xSL-Fo at all, and the fn and xsdt namespaces seem suspect, the
current draft uses 2005/xpath-datatypes and the previous one used
2005/04/xpath-datatypes, The one before did use /02 but in any case you
don't use these namespaces.

<xsl:template match="/">
&#60;ASCII-WIN&#62;

that generates a text node that starts
newline < a s C ...

If you don't want it to start with a newline, delete the newline

<xsl:template match="/">&#60;ASCII-WIN&#62;
