Hello

Calling MailMerge on a document with a nested repeating group throws NullReferenceException when a merged value contains a line terminator.

All of the following are required to reproduce the crash:

• The group («BeginGroup:Items» … «EndGroup:Items») is nested inside an outer group
• The field whose value contains the newline sits in a later table cell than the group's begin marker
• The value belongs to a non-last record

I have attached a minimal repro demonstrating the bug.

Empty paragraphs are exported to PDF with a bigger font size.

Text is exported to PDF with a larger font size when it has a paragraph style linked to a character style with a fixed size.

PdfFormatProvider: Paragraph-style tab stops are not fully ignored during export, causing unexpected tab positions.

PDF export places fixed-position images on the wrong page.

Missing table row content due to incorrect measurements after PDF export of a specific document.

Add support for Text Frame Properties on PDF export.

Add support for a horizontal line on PDF export.

Drawing objects are exported with id="0" after MailMerge. This produces OOXML-invalid document.

RadPdfProcessing already offers exception handling mechanism which allows you to handle unexpected behavior during import/export. Thus, the import/export process skips the problematic part and continues the execution. This would be a great addition to the WordsProcessing model as well. 

Introduce new section properties which are responsible for defining columns in the section.

Respect thread culture when formatting dates with the "\@" switch during mail merge.

When importing HTML content to a RadFlowDocument and exporting it to PDF format, the following error message occurs:

System.ArgumentException: 'The document element is associated with another parent. (Parameter 'item')'

Add support for AutoTextList field.

Add support for VML shapes.

Related: Add support for Shape Group.

Shape Group is used to collect shapes and groups so they can be positioned and transformed as a single unit. A group contains group, shapetype, shape, pre-defined shape - arc, curve, image, line, oval, polyline, rect, roundrect - and lock elements.

When the object is serialized out as XML, its qualified name is v:group.

Getting an exception message when trying to view a document as a PDF using the PdfFormatProvider which started happening only after upgrading Telerik to the latest version, 7.1.0 in Telerik UI for Blazor.

Exception Message:

I have copied the stack trace and source of the exception below:

Add support for images as list bullets.

PdfFormatProvider: Incorrect column width for tableGrid tables with merged cells.

Add support for Fields when exporting to TXT format. When a field is exported to *.txt, only the result should be exported (as in HTML). In the current implementation, the field characters, field code, and field result are all exported.
