Problem

Symptoms: The customer is creating a graphics line with .005 width and 5% gray shading. The line does not show up in View Document and prints sporadically to an HP LaserJet Series II. Solutions: The line won't view because the screen won't display such a small device resolution value. The printing problem is caused by HP's Rules and Shaded Boxes option. The printing works fine if they use some values other than .005 and 5% shading. HP assigns the shading from 2-5%, 5-10% and so on. If the user increases the shading value to 11%, then it prints fine. Development states that the HP printer first draws a completely black line, then puts a mask over it by turning certain pixels off, causing the line to lighten up. If the line value is too small, .005, then the pixel string that is supposed to lighten the appearance actually turns the line completely white. To make a long story short: The customer can work around HP's rules and shaded boxes by using an advance down, or assigning a darker shade to the line.
