HI,

In message <5192f1bca3lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx>, Chris Bell <lists@xxxxxxxxxxxx> writes

I've been battling to get an OvPro document to print correctly.  It
contains text and drawfile images and displays correctly on-screen.
But printing results in half of the drawfiles and, bizarrely, half of
OvPro's text underlines being changed from a solid to a dashed
linestyle.

There is always the catch about "thin" lines i.e. zero width, which may look OK on screen and near invisible on printers.

I would be inclined to try another printer driver e.g. my SPrinter (see web site) which renders to a sprite.

It sounds like you're making a case for things getting into "dash mode", and then staying in it, but that is not how RISC OS works for Draw module output.
