Excel borders too thick

First of all, thank you for Bullzip PDF Printer. It helps me a lot.
I noticed the following: Bullzip PDF show thicker borders (about 2 times too thick) when printing from Excel.
Any trick to change this to "normal" thickness ?
Thanks

I don't know of a quick fix for this problem. I guess it is with the PDF reader assuming the print of the PDF is ok.

Thanks for your answer.
I tried "save as pdf" directly from Excel 2007 (no Bullzip involved).
Borders are still fat, viewed from Foxit Reader or Adobe Reader.
I guess this is definitely NOT a Bullzip issue.
Still investigating...

Try changing the DPI up and down. This might do the trick.

Hey Everyone,
I know it's almost 3 years since this post, but the problem still exists. I can't seem to find a real solution for it but I did find a quick fix. If you Print your excel doc to an XPS, the borders come out correct. If you then print that XPS to a PDF, the borders remain preserved. I know this is annoying that you have to do it twice, but at least it works. If someone finds a better solution, please let me know!
