Also, I can't find a way to create the <?xml...> and <!doctype ...> lines at the top of the document, which I guess is related to the previous point...

Here's the code out of one of my Objective-C projects that sets up that part of the xml document:

xmlDoc.characterEncoding = @"UTF-8";

xmlDoc.version = @"1.0";

xmlDoc.standalone = NO;


 
# creation of the <header> element and of it's many attributes
set tmxHeader to current application's NSXMLNode's elementWithName:"header"
set headerCreationTool to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"creationtool" stringValue:"xls2tmx")
set headerCreationToolVersion to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"creationtoolversion" stringValue:"0.1")
set headerSrcLang to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"srclang" stringValue:myTMsrclang)
set headerAdminLang to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"adminlang" stringValue:"en")
set headerDatatype to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"datatype" stringValue:"unknown")
set headerOtmf to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"o-tmf" stringValue:"Microsoft Excel")
set headerSegtype to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"segtype" stringValue:"paragraph")
set headerCreationDate to (current application's NSXMLNode's attributeWithName:"creationdate" stringValue:myDateString)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerCreationTool)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerCreationToolVersion)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerSrcLang)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerAdminLang)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerDatatype)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerOtmf)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerSegtype)
(tmxHeader's addAttribute:headerCreationDate)
 
This sure would be cleaner if you used setAttributesAsDictionary:.
 
(tmxBody's addChild:TUElement)
(tmxRoot's addChild:tmxHeader)
(tmxRoot's addChild:tmxBody)

Are you sure all of these are being added to the correct parent?
 
return tmxRoot's XMLString() as text

And if you want the <?xml...> junk, shouldn't you be getting the NSXMLDocument's text instead of the root object's?

Sent from iCloud's ridiculous UI, so, sorry about the formatting
