  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PenStyles.Solid does not work in Export to
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Export.Pdf.Section.PdfVersion.Pdf17

  I try GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PenStyles.Dot and then it works. Why?

  Her my following Code snippeds:
  
  GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.Page page

  page.PenWidth = 2;
  
  page.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;
  
  page.PenStyle = GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PenStyles.Solid;

  if I use Dot → then it works. But Solid does not work…
  
  page.PenStyle = GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PenStyles.Dot;

  The DrawText works but DrawLine not:
  
  page.DrawText(“Oli was here”, [RectangleF text]);

  page.DrawLine([float x1, float y1, float x2, float y2]);

  I use ActiveReports 14 and .Net Framework 4.7.2

  WinFormAppForExport.zip

  I write a little Solution about the Problem. In this solution you can reproduce the bug. In class “Program.cs” line number 167 you can test with PenStyles.Solid and PenStyles.Dot

  I use AR14.1.20320

  Hello,

  You can use the following workaround:

  private SectionDocument InsertLine(SectionDocument report, GrapeCity.ActiveReports.Document.Section.PenStyles penStyle)
          {
              // pack code attributes for portrait
              const float PackingCodeTop = 11.4f / 2.54f;
              const float PackingCodeLeft = 0.42f / 2.54f;
              const float PackingCodeWidth = 0.762f / 2.54f;
              const float PackingCodeInterval = 0.4233f / 2.54f;
              foreach (Page page in report.Pages)
              {
                  page.PenWidth = 2;
                  page.ForeColor = System.Drawing.Color.Black;
  		//set style to DOT and back to SOLID as workaround
                 page.PenStyle = PenStyles.Dot;
                  page.PenStyle = penStyle;
                
                  var y = PackingCodeTop + (PackingCodeInterval * 0);
                  page.DrawLine(PackingCodeLeft, y, PackingCodeLeft + PackingCodeWidth, y);
  
              }
  
              return report;
          }
  

  Hope it helps.

  Thanks,
