Re: Reading in UTF-8 to Data

The XML file is from an app I wrote a long time ago and contains thousands of documents similar to this one.  Once Nick mentioned quotable-printable I remembered I used that.  It was so long ago I had forgotten.  There are many users that use the app and each of them have hundreds, if not thousands, of individual XML files and they need this functionality.  My last resort would be to send out update for the old app to all the users to reprocess their XML files w/o the quoted-printable but you know how that will go.  If I could only get Cocoa to do it I'd be done.

If the editor is "helping" you by interpreting quoted-printable, then you might want to try something simpler, like the 'cat' command in Terminal.app, or even the 'hexdump -C' command.  If you're not a Terminal person, HexFiend is your friend (google it).
