Bug Description

Reproduction:
1. Open SVG file created using AI SVG export plugin.
2. Change document size in File > Document Properties (e.g. +1px to width) and save.
File is now broken because a non-UTF-8 character has been included in an xpacket tag.

Ver: Inkscape 0.48.2 r9819 in XQuartz 2.7.2 (xorg-server 1.12.2) on MacOS 10.8

Does not appear to affect SVG files created in Inkscape.

Note: If you have access to Illustrator, do not activate XMP export in the SVG export options of Illustrator (before saving as SVG) - see also bug #675170 (another duplicate of bug #499257).

The problem has been reported several times - Bug #499257 “saves svg file, that it can't read afterwards” is where most of the discussion was held so far. Linking your report as duplicate to bug #499257 - please add a comment here and revert the duplicate status if you don't agree and think these are different issues that need to be discussed and tracked separately.
