The results of an experimental determination of the pulse-height distortion in soft x-ray spectra in gaseous xenon detectors are presented. The study confirms previous Monte Carlo simulation results and emphasizes the importance of the electric field in the drift region in reducing spectral degradation while the effect of a strong magnetic field in the same region is shown to be negligible.
