preventing empty xml elements are converted to self closing elements

I am using Xerces Library for writing XML in document . For that I am using OutputFormat class passing the object of OutputFormat in XMLSerializer. But all of my empty xml elements are converted to self-closing xml elements.

I want this:

<Company Name="Dummy">
</Company>

But its coming like

<Company Name="Dummy" />

I have tried below code:

try
    {
        //print
        OutputFormat format = new OutputFormat(dom,"iso-8859-1",true);

        //to generate output to console use this serializer
        XMLSerializer serializer = new XMLSerializer(System.out, format);


        serializer.serialize(dom);

    } catch(IOException ie) {
        ie.printStackTrace();

}

Can someone help me out on this.

Thanks,
