["Hellmann Peter (ext) ICM RDC IS VDR RD" <Pe...@mch.siemens.de>]

setDoctype() does the job !

/**

   *
   * @return          the xml or "no valid document"
   * @exception       Standard exception "Exception" will be thrown
   *
   */

  public String GetXml()
  {

    if (null == document)
       {
       return "no valid document, cannot serialize DOM tree";
       }

    OutputFormat oformat = new OutputFormat(document);

    oformat.setDoctype(null, document.getDoctype().getSystemId());
    oformat.setLineWidth(80);
    oformat.setIndent(2);
    oformat.setLineSeparator("\r\n");

    oformat.setOmitComments(false);
    oformat.setOmitDocumentType(false);
    oformat.setOmitXMLDeclaration(false);
    oformat.setEncoding(encType);
    oformat.setVersion("1.0");
    oformat.setStandalone(true);
    oformat.setIndenting(true);
    oformat.setPreserveEmptyAttributes(true);

    StringWriter stringOut = new StringWriter();

    try
    {

      XMLSerializer serial = new XMLSerializer(stringOut, oformat);
      serial.asDOMSerializer();

      serial.serialize(document);

    }
    catch (Exception e)
    {
      e.printStackTrace(System.err);
    }

    return stringOut.toString();
