Hi, I've transferred a table grid into acrobat to create a fillable pdf.  When I go to print, some of the lines disappeared.  How do I fix this?

From where does that table grid come? (software, file format, and maybe software version).

This effect is most likely caused by hairlines. There is some office software which translates its thinnest line not into a given width in pt, but as "one pixel wide". The higher the resolution, the greater will be the chance that a single pixel wide line won't be visible.

If you have Acrobat Pro, you can use the Preflight tool (in the Print Production tool set; depending on your Acrobat version, you may have to activate the Print Production tools (make them appear in the Tools panel). There is a fixup which fixes hairlines.

I found the fix.  The lines show except when you print.  You have to change the print resolution.

Thank You
