Coloured Word Tables show odd vertical & horizontal lines

[Poolee]

Compared the pdf by opening in another pdf reader (Foxit) and the coloured table cells look normal. Did a search on the forum and found a mention of it but no further details or a resolution.

Attached is a screen dump showing both reader's views.

I have tried printing to different PDF printers with no difference.



PDF-XChange Viewer 2.5 (Build 197.0)
Windows 7 SP1

Please let me know if you need more information.

Cheers

Hi Paul,

Please send a copy of the PDF document to support@pdf-xchange.com referencing the forum post, so we can have a look and if need be forward the issue and document to our development team to address.

Thanks,

Chris

The source document (Test text.doc.pdf) has been uploaded as well as the resultant PDF (Document 4.pdf).

Remove the .pdf extension from the Test text.doc.pdf file to access it properly.

BTW, I am running Word 2010.

Cheers
Paul

Hi there,

I encountered a similar phenomenon with Excel-diagrams; When plotting it via a pdf-printer, the grid changes with the zoom in pdf Xchange Viewer; with adobe viewer, everything looks as it should...
Do you know this phenomenon?
I suppose, it is a matter of settings for the viewer, because I tried it with four different pdf-printers and the result was always the same..
kind regards

Michael

Hello Poolee and michael.kautt,

Thanks for the samples. It seems like the background consists of several "pieces" and as their coordinates are in floating point numbers, there are very thin "gaps" between them - which Adobe is correctly masking while we do shown them - I have passed this to our devs for investigation.

Best,
Stefan

Hello michael and Poolee

Our developers confirmed that both of the samples you have provided are affected by the same problem.
We are aware of it and are working on getting this resolved for ver3 of our Viewer expected a bit later this year.

Your samples have been added to a ticket we have on the problem: #146: Stroke Adjust and will be used for testing the solution we are working on! Thank you both for your samples.

Best,
Stefan

Thank you;
in this case we will wait for the new viewer version...
kind regards
