Angry Printing Word-Tables as PDFs without making the borders 1 point

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

Tobi

What happens when you use Word's save as pdf?

The people here have experience about using Word but may not be the best resource on this issue. You may want to consult the manufacturers of the pdf conversion products as well.

I regularly use tables in Word with no borders. I have never experienced this using either direct save as pdf in Word or Adobe's Add-In. However, I do not have shading in my tables, either.

It is the same for save as PDF.

Here is a picture of one of the little teeth.

On the one hand, it is an issue of the printing program. On the other hand, every printing program has this issue with word.
