I have some HTML that simply contains a link such as: <a href="mailto:me@me.com?Subject=My%20Subject">e-mail me</a> This works fine in HTML. However, when I convert this to PDF, the resulting file has the %20 replaced with a space. That works in Acrobat reader, but not in all viewers. Basically, it's wrong. That URL should be encoded and I don't understand why EO.PDF would remove the encoding there.

I'm having this same issue. However I do not see the issue being fixed. I am testing with the latest version of the EO.Pdf nuget package (19.1.11). My URL has a query parameter which is a URL and it is URL-encoded. So it looks like this: https://hostname.com?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftarget.com But this is being escaped when the PDF is generated which doesn't work with some links.

This issue should have already been fixed. If you continue to have problem, please send us a test file and we will be happy to check again. See here for more details on how to send test files to us: https://www.essentialobjects.com/forum/test_project.aspxThanks

Here's step by step the behavior I am getting: 1. I run HtmlToPdf.ConvertHtml with the Body HTML shown in this screenshot: https://i.imgur.com/D7Jh6vG.png. You can see the url query parameter contains encoded values for the colon and the slash characters. 2. I double check the referenced assembly version for EO.Pdf is in fact 19.1.11. https://i.imgur.com/AsICHOb.png3. I open the generated PDF file and hover over the generated link.The colon and slashes are no longer encoded in the URL, and the URL does not work with the server.
