I am not an actual user of InDesign, but I intensively work with PDF-s, and among other sources, i faced with one created by InDesign. The issue with dash pattern brings me here. PDF spec defines dash pattern as an array of [dash pause] pairs followed by a phase (starting offset). What I found in that PDF, is: “[ 0 0.937 ] 0 d” which means: zero user units length for dash and 0.937 user units length for pause. The result is no-dash line at all. It seems that Adobe Acrobat somehow tolerate that issue (replacing on the fly the zero value with something “visible”) and dash line appears. But other apps or devices may not so flexible.
