I am converting/printing Word 2002 to Adobe Acrobat 6.0. There are a lot of
tables in my report that look good in Word, however when they get converted,
some of the table gridlines go away, some decrease in width, some increase in
width.

Help! How do I fix this. I have to create 9000 reports!!

Thanks,
Beth

What are you using to do the conversion? MS Word doesn't have a PDF output
option {unless it sneaked in behind my back :)}

It sounds like the forum for that product should be the place to ask your question.

Acrobat/Distiller - adobe forums on their website or via the usenet server
adobeforums.com

Other products such as PDFFactory, PDFDesk, ScanSoft Converter, and dozens of
others all have their own help lines and forums.

The only way I know to fix this is to increase the line widths in Word's
table formatting options before you convert to PDF.
