Problems in XML to text

Question

I'm using Xalan to perform XSLT from XML to text file.
As I need to format the text file with carriage return at the end of every string pattern produced, I declare a variable in my XSL as a new-line character.
It works fine if I use a XSLT GUI tool (based on MS Parser SDK) but not using Xalan parser in my Java program. Somehow the newline charache
Here is a portion of my sample Java program:
TransformerFactory tFactory = TransformerFactory.newInstance();
Transformer oTransformer = tFactory.newTransformer(new StreamSource(new File("C:\\actions\\transform\\", sXSLFilename)));
StreamSource oXMLSource = new StreamSource(
new StringReader(new String(aData)), "C:\\xslt\\OFT_COMP.dtd");
StreamResult oResult = new StreamResult(oStrWriter);
oTransformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.METHOD, "text");
oTransformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.ENCODING, "ISO-8859-1");
oTransformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "no");
oTransformer.transform(oXMLSource, oResult);
aOutputXMLData = oStrWriter.toString().getBytes();
Does anybody know what's the problem? Or any other suggestions on performing this kind of "newline" separator?
Thanks in advance.

easiest just use a stylesheet to transform the xml to text... and use:
<xsl:text>&#10;</xsl:text>
for carriage return
