You can look for a serializer that will do it, or you can just run the
output through Tidy - there is a java version at
http://sourceforge.net/projects/jtidy
You can also try running an identity xslt tranformation, using
<xsl:output indent='yes'/>
in the stylesheet to get some pretty-printing, but the results may or may
not be close to what you would like, depending on the processor.
