Bug 194695 Rightside borders of the last shown column are not printed in PDF for tables where the real last column is hidden
I first noticed this problem on a very large table for which I must hide the last column(s). In HTML everythings looks neat, but on PDF the rightside borders of the last shown column are either invisible or at best 1 pixel wide (regardless of the zoom level!!) I tried hiding one of the inner columns and then the borders were shown (because the last column was visible) confirming my hypothesis. There is a workarround, but it's not pretty: I made a very thin "dummy" last column with only leftside borders and made it visible for PDF only :D Hope you nail this one soon. Thanks guys and keep up the good work.

					if(dummyCell.getRowSpan( )==1)

						if(dummyCell.getHeight( )<0)

							CellArea cArea = dummyCell.getCell( );

								cArea.setHeight( cArea.getHeight( ) - dummyCell.getHeight( ) );
								verticalAlign( cArea);
								dropCells.add( cArea );
