Code:
not well-formed (invalid token) at line 2, column 17, byte 56 at C:/Perl/lib/XML/Parser.pm line 187 at C:/Perl/site/lib/PDF/FromHTML.pm line 140

The perl code is as given below:
Code:
my $pdf = PDF::FromHTML->new( encoding => 'utf-8' );
$pdf->load_file($filename);       
$pdf->convert();

You did not assign an actual input file name to the variable $filename.
