Description:
============
The Newline character is missing in outbound generated EDI file when the XML file to be converted has some non-ISO-8859-1 characters.

Environment:
==========
Linux RHEL 5.x, 6.x with BC EDI 6.X

Symptoms:
=========
The XML to EDI is converted properly with the new line getting generated properly if the XML does not have the special character but if the non-ISO-8859-1 character is present, the newline character is not generated properly. No exceptions are thrown in the logs.

Cause:
=====
The "locale" setting of the operating system on that particular machine might be different from "UTF-8" which is the correct encoding for these special characters.


Resolution:
=========
Check and compare the locale settings using the "locale" command . The machine locale property LANG should be "en_US.UTF-8" . If this property is anything other than UTF-8, it should be set to UTF-8. This should be done by Linux system administrators.
