I have created a table without visible borders, only using different shadings.




There are several different cells within areas of uniform shading (to better align different text elements).


Acrobat prints the gridlines (which I set to invisible) and ads little bumps at the end of the shaded areas (just where the gridlines end).

Foxit and PDFelement 6 do not print the gridlines (I already made some progress). These two PDF printers still add the ugly bumps at the end of the gridlines (It looks like my table had grown tiny teeth).

Neither the gridlines nor the tiny teeth are visible in the original word document.

Previous threads indicated different workarounds, such as setting the borders to point 1. This doesn't apply here.

Please share your ideas on how to fix this.

Thanks for your support
