SYMPTOMS
When you zoom out to less than 100% in Print Preview mode, some lines in a control or a graphic are not displayed correctly.



CAUSE
This issue can occur because of rounding errors and aliasing. The computer interprets the image as a series of dots (pixels). This tends to create a jagged pattern (called aliasing) for displaying curved and diagonal line patterns. If you zoom in to more than 100%, aliasing is not used.



STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed at the beginning of this article.
