I’m trying to convert an XML file to PDF but most tools I’ve tried aren’t working properly and online converters either fail or give output with broken formatting and random unreadable text

I think the issue is that the XML file has some structured or encoded data, so basic tools aren’t able to process it correctly also i tried opening it in a text editor but it’s too complex to handle manually

Is there any reliable way to convert XML to PDF without messing up the structure, especially for larger or complex files?

Hello,

I have the original Blu-ray release of the Pixar movie Up, and on Disc 2 there is a Wilderness Explorer game. The online leaderboards for the game were on Disney’s BD Live Network server, unfortunately the server is long gone. However a few days ago I was looking through a network analyzer and I saw that whenever you clicked the Ranking Menu it sent a POST request to “disneyscores.com/API” and I decided to spoof that by using a proxy server to redirect the old disneyscores.com server to my server (which has an API folder), to my surprise instead of only showing the Local Rankings it now showed the BD Live rankings too so it was actually grabbing from my server. However I tried to play the game and when it was done it was sending a XML request:

Password=qy5m2aux&DiscID=00000000000000001&APIMethod=SubmitScore&GameID=4&Score=7855&DisplayName=AAA&UserName=

and I wasn’t sure how to translate that. Whenever the leaderboards load it sends this:

Password=qy5m2aux&DiscID=00000000000000001&APIMethod=GetScores&GameID=4&Mode=HighestToLowest&StartValue=0&EndValue=9

I tried making a Python script that could read from a txt file and translate it to that but it still ends up showing blank.

How do I go about doing this?
