An XBRL document must not contain HTML character name references.

Section 5.2.2.6 defines extended ASCII characters and how they may be referenced in HTML, but XBRL documents are not HTML documents, and recognize only XML predefined entities (" & ' < and >).

To include characters greater than 127, use XML numeric character references.

For example, ® and ® are ASCII sequences producing the ® symbol.

REMARK: This test suite does NOT test to see that only the subset of ASCII allowed by 5.2.1.1 are used.
