I tried to save a Word document (2010 version) as a PDF, but the PDF had lines that shouldn't be there. There are sections with two columns of text, and each column has text followed by lines (it's supposed to be a form you can write on). I created the lines using an underscore leader in the Tabs window. In other words, when I type "Name:" and press Tab, it appears as Name:______, with the line going to the far right tab (it's easier and looks nicer than just using a bunch of underscores.) When I saved the document as a PDF, it looked like the lines not separated by text were connected. How can I fix that? I hope what I'm describing makes.

You would obtain more consistent results if you used right-aligned tab-stops with underlined tabs instead of underscore characters.
