Horatiu,
this is not even an XMLBeans question, this is simply an XML question.
In XML, the character data inside an element must not contain a raw
unescaped open angle bracket (<); this character is always interpreted
as the start of a tag. If you need to use this character, you can
escape it using the built-in entity reference &lt; (or the numeric or
hexadecimal numeric character references). Character data may not contain
a raw unescaped ampersand (&) either. Character data _may_ contain the
raw unescaped closed angle bracket (>).

org.apache.xmlbeans.impl.tool.PrettyPrinter does not honour &gt;


So if I want to have in the output xml file the character ">" or "<" or "&"
not escaped and not in a CDATA tag, is not possible ?
