What steps will reproduce the problem?
1.The html to pdf routine inserts a new cell when it sees a lt, gt, amp, or
apos. This causes incorrect PDF output that adds a column to the table when one
of thes characters is encountered. For example, the following table in HTML
row 1 It's a boy Wt > 4 kg len < 40cm
row 2 boy & girl Wt > 3kg len < 35 cm
is converted to the following PDF
row 1 It s a boy Wt
row 2 boy girl Wt
2.
3.
What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The HTML produces:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
| row 1 | It's a boy | Wt > 4 kg | len < 40cm |
|-------------|----------------|----------------|------------------|
| row 2 | boy & girl | Wt > 3kg | len < 35 cm |
--------------------------------------------------------------------
The PDF produces:
--------------------------------------------------------------------
| row 1 | It | s a boy | Wt |
|-------------|----------------|----------------|------------------|
| row 2 | boy | girl | Wt |
--------------------------------------------------------------------
