@bjrmatos Ok thanks for the info.

Is there also no way to post process the pdf to adjust the borders? I looked for a nodejs library where I could loop through all the rectangles in the pdf and adjust the size, but I only found libraries where I could add new elements to an existing pdf.

Hi @bjrmatos,

I'm trying to migrate from the .Net iText Library.

I've uploaded an simple html example here: https://playground.jsreport.net/w/david.masshardt/oIX7iUvs

The easiest way to see the difference in border thickness is to create a docx template with a simple table with minimum border width and convert it using unoconv to a pdf. (Sadly I was not able to upload a docx asset to the playground)

To compare the pdf's I'm using LibreOffice. Just open the two pdf's generated from chrome-pdf and docx in LibreOffice and select one of the borders. In the docx the borders are rendered as lines and in chrome-pdf they are rendered as filled rectangles and are a bit thicker. Also the recangles are created separatly for every cell in the table. (So 4 recangles arround every cell) In the docx to pdf report the lines are continuous over multiple cells.

I found out that when I render the pdf with a 0.8 scale the line width would be exactly the same as in my iText report. But of course this scales down the whole report and I didn't find a way to just scale down the border lines.

I've also tested this with wkhtmltopdf and electon-pdf, but the borders are exacly the same.

Is there any way to scale down only the borders in an html report?

I'm trying to migrate a report to JSReport. I'm using handlebars html the chrome-pdf engine.

The problem is that with chrome-pdf the border lines of the tables with 1px thickness are noticably thicker than on my original report. Here are two screenshots (Zoomed in to show the problem) that show the difference in thickness:
Original border:

Chrome-pdf border:

I noticed that chrome-pdf adds rectangles with height/width of 0.3cm instead of lines in the pdf for the borders.

Is there any way to reduce the thickness of those lines in chrome-pdf or force it to add lines instead of rectangles?
