Inbound XML Translation Encoding Support
For inbound translation, Sterling Gentran:Server® processes XML files that were created using one of the encoding options listed in this topic.
You should always include an encoding attribute in the XML declaration of the input XML file unless the file is encoded using UTF-8, which is the default per the XML specification. If you do not include an encoding attribute in the XML declaration, the translator assumes the file is UTF-8 encoded.
For example: <?xml version=”1.0” encoding=”Big5”?>
