使用iTextSharp在pdf中打印“ <”不起作用

Question

I have the following text in my web page.

Footnote This is <1 234234> This is end part should be visible.

When I convert the web page to pdf the above page is shown as

Footnote This is This is end part should be visible.

After analyzing I got that this is happening because of "<". I guess the reason is that iTextSharp considers <1 234234> as a tag and it doesn't add this text to the pdf.

If we have only "<" in the text and doesn't have ">" then the whole text after "<" is skipped.

Can anyone please suggest how to show the above text properly? Any help will be appreciated.

I have tried by replacing "<" with "&lt" but this did not work.

Answer 1

I used HttpUtility.HtmlEncode() and it is working properly now. :)

If anyone knows anything more then please share.
