Hi,
I merged the CALs table using Join. However, the row lines are missing after the merge.
How to go about this>

Thanks.
Regards,
Joyce

Hi Joyce,
Maybe you can give us more details here, the Oxygen version you are using, maybe paste in a codeblock a small DITA topic example with how the table looks before invoking the action, then give precise steps about what you select in the document and how you invoke the action, then an example with how the DITA topic looks like on your side after invoking the action.

Hi Radu,
Here's the code in Oxygen XML Author v.26.1.
When i print it out, the lines are visible. However, the lines can't be seen in pdf.

Code: Select all

<table frame="all" rowsep="1" colsep="1" id="table_kgr_qbv_fgc">
            <title>Ordering Part Number</title>
            <tgroup cols="3" align="center">
                <colspec colname="c1" colnum="1" colwidth="1*" colsep="1"/>
                <colspec colname="c2" colnum="2" colwidth="1*"/>
                <colspec colname="c3" colnum="3" colwidth="1*"/>
                <thead>
                    <row>
                        <entry morerows="1" colsep="1" rowsep="1">Device Family</entry>
                        <entry namest="c2" nameend="c3" colsep="1" rowsep="1">Part Number</entry>
                    </row>
                    <row>
                        <entry>Single Seat Annual</entry>
                        <entry>Single Seat Perpetual</entry>
                    </row>
                </thead>
                <tbody>
                    <row>
                        <entry>Test data</entry>
                        <entry/>
                        <entry/>
                    </row>
                    <row>
                        <entry/>
                        <entry/>
                        <entry/>
                    </row>
                    <row>
                        <entry/>
                        <entry/>
                        <entry/>
                    </row>
                </tbody>
            </tgroup>
        </table>

Hello,

I've tried to transform your <table> using <oXygen/> XML Editor 26.1, build 2024091606 and the default DITA Map PDF - based on HTML5 & CSS scenario. The lines are correctly displayed in the output:

If the lines appear in the printed document but are not visible in the PDF, it's typically due to a screen resolution issue. You can troubleshot this issue by following this topic from our user guide.

Julien
