Karen,
Sorry, I wasn't clear -- I'm suggesting there are ~two~ separate problems
here. The first is what you describe below. The second is: given
the fo such as it is, it renders differently for -print and -awt versus
-pdf. On both -awt and -print no border is drawn for the table cells.
The pdf renderer ~does~ draw the table borders.
The awt/print problem is due to AWTRenderer attmpting to fill a rectangle
with either the width or height of zero. This happens when the border size
drops below a threshold (i.e., 500 millipts) This all stems from a patch
to AWTRender I supplied a few weeks ago in which, among other things, we
made AWTRenderer honor actual border sizes.
(The original 0.19.0 AWTRenderer drew ~all~ borders 1 pixel thick,
regardless of border-size.)
Does this make sense to you ? If so, I supplied a patch earlier today to
fix it.
