This appears to be a Xerces bug. FOP using xerces-1.2.3.jar distributed with
fop-0.20.3 is indeed unable to grok UTF-16 encoded XML. The very same Xerces
works with UTF-16 if called by Xalan or with a simple SAX application, which
is rather strange.
A simple program driving FOP through a JAXP identity transformer fails with
Xerces 1.2.3 +Xalan but works if Saxon or Xerces 1.4.4 +Xalan is in the
classpath instead. Unfortunately, Xerces 1.4.4 no longer supplies the
org.apache.xerces.parsers.SAXParser class necessary for the FOP command
line application. As soon as we switch to JAXP, Xerces 1.4.4 or later can
be utilized.
