Dotted lines show behind curved surfaces after printing to pdf

Are the dotted lines visible on your screen or only in the print? Can you upload the file here (seventh icon across the top of the post window) so we can diagnose.

If dots are on your screen then View>EdgeStyle>BackEdges toggle off.

If they are a quirk of the PDF export (it happens) let us look at the file, or export as PNG first then convert to PDF?
