Hello Tony,

Thanks for your interest in our products.

The source HTML string needs to be updated so that it can properly be converted into PDF format. Please replace " with ' and try converting it into PDF format. I have tested the scenario using Aspose.Pdf for .NET 5.3.0 and I am unable to notice any problem. Please have a look over attached PDF document.

Mean while I am working on issue related to formatting which is occurring while generating the PDF document. Please be patient and spare us little time. We apologize for your inconvenience

//Create a section in the pdf document

I know it is the " thing causing the crash. What I like is you can escape them from your side. At least, it should not crash the program. Thanks.

Hello Tony,

Yes you are correct. &quote; should be properly rendered or at least the error should not be displayed. I have already logged this issue as PDFNET-28654 in our issue tracking system. More along, I have also logged the formatting issue (resultant PDF does not contain text in appropriate font) in our issue tracking system as PDFNET-28650. We will further look into the details of these problems and will keep you updated on the status of correction. Please be patient and spare us little time. We apologize for your inconvenience.
