I'm not sure I understand the question.

Internally, libxml uses UTF-8. If a file is in a different encoding and
that encoding is properly declared, libxml will do the right thing in
translating to UTF-8 when it parses the document.

On the output end, you have to explicity tell libxml the encoding you
want.

There's an example of how to do all this here:
http://www.xmlsoft.org/tutorial/ar01s08.html
and Daniel's explanation of encoding issues here:

Cheers,
John
