Table editing rows appearing in print and PDF

In the old days I could edit tables and print or create a PDF from email and the lines appeared normal yes, straight and black or invisibles. After some updates now the table lines (with the email open in edit) are printed in red on dotted lines. Even though the print preview shows that there is no error. Is it possible to change any settings to solve this?

Here are some examples of what happens.

SS 1 - Lines ok SS 2 - Lines on editing text SS 3 - Lines on preview of print ok too, invibles, like that. SS 4 - But when file is created, they appear in bright dotted red. Same thing if you print to the physical printer. :(

I guess it's better to report it on https://github.com/mozilla/pdf.js/issues

I have quite the same problem (I will post the following separately, too):

I have to send a table (3 columns, 30 lines, only text around 1000 letters) made in LibreOffice Calc (or Writer) with Tbird (not as an attachment). The problem is that the black lines of the table are not visible in Tbird message and, more importantly, the recipient will not get them either. Instead, I see dotted red lines and the recipient does not see even them (I have understood that the red lines are just for the sender and not important here). Sometimes the table format is visible for the recipient, sometimes not.

So, how to get the black lines visible both for me and the recipient?

I haven't found any help in the settings and the forum. I have tried e.g. with all four Sending Format settings (found in the Options menu of the email form) and numerous other ways, but it just doesn't work. Html-has been on and of several times, I have made several templates, etc.

Could the problem be in the Calc-settings?

If I use the Windows Live desktop program (which has not been supported for years), then there is no problem, i.e. the lines are visible to me and the recipient.
