Borders deleted when emailing or printing document?

[bp2k15]

I'm working on my resume which saves and opens fine in word 08 for mac OS X, but when I email the document, all borders somehow get deleted. Same goes when I save it in PDF. When I open it, all borders are removed. Wondering what issue this could be? Its important for me to keep the borders.

I've attached images to show the difference.

With borders:

after removed:

Thanks for any help

From your screenshots, it appears the 'before' image is displaying the table gridlines, not borders. If you want borders to appear in the output, you'll have to add them - gridlines never appear there.

thanks for the response. is there a way to turn those gridlines into borders the exact way they are?

No, you can't convert gridlines to borders. Adding borders is a trivial exercise, though.
