Hello,

I'm working with the latest EO.PDF tools.

Generally very impressed, but i'm having a problem with a 1px colour bleed on the tables after conversion. It's looks like it's caused by adobe readers handling of the image (if i zoom in, the bleed goes away). However, I don't seem to get the bleed when exporting to pdf from Microsoft Word (or through cutePDF etc). The only route seems to be changing the HTML/EO.pdf settings to try to avoid this issue.

This affects coloured cells and the borders of tables (they seem to extend 1px beyond the table until zoomed in).

Are there changes i can make to the HTML to mitigate this issue?

Hi,

Unfortunately there is no setting to avoid that. The root of the problem has to do with how the table lines are drawn. From our experience, Adobe Reader can avoid the problem if the lines are drawn continuously. For example, if it is line "MoveTo(0, 0) -> LineTo(100, 0)-> LineTo(100, 100)". However problem occurs if the two lines are drawn separately, for example, "MoveTo(0, 0) -> LineTo(100, 0), MoveTo(100, 100), LineTo(100, 0)". In the second case even if both line ends on the same coordination, sometimes Adobe Reader would overshoot one pixel for some reasons. Because it is not possible for us to always draw lines continuously, so we are not aware of how to avoid this problem.

Thanks!
