Default Lines look skinney, but print big and fat.

G'day "Gary Burton" ,

Stick the cursor on the paragraph that is underlined. Format
Paragraph Borders :- the bottom border of this paragraph has been
set to fat for your liking.

Gary Burton reckoned:

I created a lot of lines across the page in my documents by inputing 3
or mor underscores, then hitting the enter key. These lines are acutally
the bottom side of an outside border. They look perfect on the screen, and
also when I do a print preview. When I actually print them, however, those
lines come out about 4 points fatter than they apprear on the screen or in
the preview. It also happens when I create a PDF file from theWord
document. It is a very obvious difference, and I haven't been able to find
a solution. Is there any way to prevent (or fix) this problem?
