Shading during print

S

Scott Rymer

I have a table with various shading elements: yellow headers, alternating
grey/white. On screen, all is well but when I print to a printer, PDF or
XPS, the shading gets all messed up with extra white lines near the bottom
of every cell. Any suggestions on getting this to print as on screen?

On further investigation, it appears that when I have Cell Margins > 0, the
shading stops on the bottom of the cell with the whitespace height equal to
the sum of the Top Margin + Bottom Margin. (eg. 0.04 Top + 0.04 Bottom =
0.08 whitespace at bottom of cell; 0.08 Top + 0.00 Bottom = 0.08 whitespace
at bottom of cell)

I have made sure that all margins are equal in the row of cells and have
also made sure that I am applying shading to the "Cell" and not just the
paragraph (as per previous posts on the issue). Removing Cell Margins is
not an option.

My problems are with Word 2003...
I transferred the file from work to my personal laptop with Word 2007 and
printed to PDF. Formatting is perfect!
