<para>This parameter has effect only when Saxon 6 is used (version 6.4.2 or later). 
It sets the character representation in files generated by the chunking stylesheets. 
If you want to suppress entity references for characters with direct representations in 
<parameter>chunker.output.encoding</parameter>, set the parameter value to <literal>native</literal>. 
</para>

<para> For more information, see <link 
role="tcg" xlink:href="OutputEncoding.html#SaxonCharacter">Saxon output character representation</link>.</para>

<note>
<para>This parameter is documented here, but the declaration is actually
in the <filename>chunker.xsl</filename> stylesheet module.</para>
