[oXygen-user] How to I get Oxygen to identify invalid characters? [SEC=UNCLASSIFIED]

Hi All,

I have a ISO 19139 metadata record that someone has cut and paste M$ word content into one of the CharacterString fields. According to the Validome XML online validator these characters (â~@~T or M$ long hyphens) are invalid. Also, when we use SAXON to translate this metadata record into XHTML, SAXON says that there is a validation error.

When I load this document into Oxygen, version 10.0 build 2008102212, it validates OK. Is there some way for me to catch these invalid characters during validation?

Thanks.
