I am having a problem validating well-formed EAD documents in WordPerfect 9
(the WordPerfect 2000 Office Suite).  The XML module in WP seems to insist
on the root element <ead> being the very first thing in the document.  So
when its parser runs across the DOCTYPE declaration preceding the <ead> tag,
it flags it as an error.

Have any WP users out there run into this and found a way to resolve it?
