UTF-16 is a valid XML encoding for a document. Line terminators between elements are not part of the XML standard per se. So long as the document is well-formed, it is valid.
I suspect that what you want to do is to convert the document into a more viewable format i.e. UTF-8 If this is the case, have a look at the iconv man page.
