[xep-support] invalid bytes

[tom at themaloneygroup.com]

Try using "& # 169 ;" (remove spaces and quotes) for the copyright symbol. 
That's
ampersand pound 169 semicolon, in case email jumbles it.

I use "& # 160 ;" (no spaces or quotes) for a non-breaking space.  It works
using Xalan, but I'm not sure about Saxon.
