[Archivesspace_Users_Group] Exporting to PDF errors

[Trevor Thornton]

The PDF exporter first generates EAD XML file and parses that to generate
the PDF. If the XML is invalid the PDF export will fail.  In this case, it
looks like you have unescaped ampersands somewhere that the XML parser is
trying to interpret as XML entities. If you find these, replacing them
with & should make this error go away.
