I have created a table dynamically and then use Report/Perform() to display/print the report. However, sometimes the borders display and other times they do not. If I resize the window it changes which borders appear. Sometimes you can get it just right so that all the borders appear.

Excuse the longer example but it has QTF code to show the problem:

Report r;
r << "[ $$0,0#00000000000000000000000000000000:Default]"
"[{_} "
"[ {{1755:848:856:846:834:869:795:3197@7|2 [s0;=%% [*2 Points]]"

":: [s0;=%% `@ET]"

":: [s0; `-]}}]";
	
Perform(r);


Is there a way to fix this?

It is because it scales down too much -> the width drops bellow 1 pixel.

Interestingly, there is simple way to fix the problem - add Painter package to your project. That will activate high-quality subpixel accuracy software rendering of Reports and thin lines will be drawn just fine (as gray).

Interesting, looks like acrobat reader tries to fight with the very same issue...

Note that if you go into preferences (in AR) and put "Enhance thin lines" flag off, they reappear.

Frankly, I am not sure what to do with this.... Certainly, part of problem is how lines in tables are composed together (using 3 adjacent lines - grid line and bordering cells borders), but....
