It is possible that the error message is misleading. The line number 1 it
is referring to may be line 1 of one of your entities. Is it possible that
you are referring to a graphic entity when you meant an xml entity? If it
is trying to read a graphics file as text, it will indeed think the byte
sequence is not UTF-8. Can you validate the file by other means?
