You must ensure that the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="...." ?> has an appropriate value for your choice of character encoding.

The underlying parser, Xerces, supports a lot of encoding schemes, and I have succesfully read Shift-JIS encoded files with it.

Otherwise the native2ascii utility from the Java Development Kit from Sun can be used to transform your files into UTF-8.
