Problem description
I had a problem with xslutils personal edition from XMLmind package on linux machine. When I entered my native language into programlisting (UTF-8) chars, like "Ś", "ą", "ę", "ł", there was always following problem in xslutils reported (see the picture below) :

And although in the Preferences window I added to the FOP converter corresponding Curier TTFs from msttcorefonts package :

there was no way to convert native UTF-8 signs from xml document into pdf document.
Problem solution
After a while of testing and searching of programlisting.font.family, listing.font.family and so on in the params folder of the xslutils I was blightened. Eureka! You have to open the Edit dialog box from the main window :

And from new dialog box that will appear you should select tab called Transform (1). Then press the button Add (3) and enter in the Name field : monospace.font.family, and in the Value field enter serif. So that, you will have something similar in the Edit dialog box as on the picture below :

Now click OK button and try to convert your xml document once again. It’s working right now!
