Hi,
I am getting the follwing error while exporting PDF file. I used the following formatted text in grid "Workers Compensation Information[binary]" in one of the column.I assume the error mainly comes due to using non unicode character. So i would like to know how to avoid the following error and also how to replace the appropriate character symbols with matching text. Since i am using lot of symbol related characters it would be more helpful to me to track error.
My error message is:
Invalid XHTML. RadGrid has to render correct XHTML in order to export to PDF.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: Telerik.Web.UI.Grid.Export.GridPdfExportException: Invalid XHTML. RadGrid has to render correct XHTML in order to export to PDF.
Parse error:
Reference to undeclared entity 'W'. Line 2004, position 75.
at line:
Louisiana Workers' Compensation Notice (B&W; English)<i>[binary]</i>
-Thanks

Hello John,
Please replace the semicolon character with its HTML code representation and let me know whether this helps:
HTML Codes for Punctuation and Other Characters
This is not a valid XHTML-compliant code and therefore the parser throws an exception. You could try to validate your code here:
W3C Markup validator
Kind regards,

Hello Daniel,
How would you suggest we deal with dynamic html that's being exported and there's a chance that the data comes in damaged? I'd hate for our customers to see their screen blow up because there are some quotes or closing tags missing. The customers are not expected to know html or any of the code insides. Is there any html validation method you can recommend that I can apply server-side before the export takes place?
Thank you,
Dasha.

Hello Dasha,
You can just enable the HtmlEncode property for your data columns.
For template columns you could use the Server.HtmlEncode() method.
