Default Random lines appearing when printed

creating tables with shaded cells and 2 1/4 borders. line appears in printing and at some % zooms between the shaded cells and the table border. Any ideas on how to avoid/get rid of these lines. I have attached a screen shot to illustrate.



any help would be great!!!

It's not clear from your attachment. Presumably the red line is your cell border, even though it appears to be unrelated to the shaded area. That aside, I am guessing that the troublesome line is the thin black one below.

Select both empty paragraphs, open the Borders and Shading dialouge at the bottom of the borders drop-down on the ribbon Home tab (or type ALt+O,B) and remove all borders. That should do it.

thanks for your help.
  • the red box is highlighting the line in question.
  • the line its self is the thin white line at the bottom and within the grey shaded table cell.
  • the black line is supposed to be there.
sorry i was not clear. Thanks again!

My tests suggest that it is not something in the paragraph, but a white or automatic border from one of the paragraphs below. Again, I would check them. Select both the paragraph and the following "empty ones, clear all borders, and see if the white line disappears. If so, reapply the black line afterward.
