Trouble converting Word document to PDF...

I am having problems converting a Word document into a PDF. I'm using the border 'wavy' in Word and then when it converts to a PDF, Acrobat changes the border to a thick solid border around the words. We checked mutliple peoples software and they all do the same thing. Please see attached example - I could only attach the converted result as this forum won't allow doc files to be uploaded????

So the wavy style in Word looks like this, /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ all the way around the word, CAUTION. When converted with Acrobat, instead of the wavy, there is a solid box around the word just like in the attachment.

Thanks!!

Your attachment has no information content (0 bytes). I tried this in both WORD 2007 (%26amp; AA8) and WORD 2003 (%26amp; AA7) and got mixed results for the conversion of the border. I used the WORD plug-in from MS and got no border at all (even worse!). Some of the other borders looked fine. It appears to be related to the border, but I am not sure it is an Acrobat or WORD problem. However, when I printed to paper, it came out fine.

I tried PDF Maker and got similar results.

Bill,

Let me try to send you the picture. Hopefully you can see what I'm seeing?
