save table to PDF and replace NA values

I have a table object that I want to save in PDF. The table has some missing values that appear as NA in EViews and I would like them to appear as '--' (two dashes) in the PDF version.
I tried this:
table1.save(t=pdf, n=--) E:\usr\docs\table1.pdf
It saved the table to PDF, however the missing values still appear as NA in it.

I also tried the same for CSV:
table1.save(t=csv, n=--) E:\usr\docs\table1.csv
and it worked perfectly. All NA cells were replaced with --.

I also tried doing this via Proc --> Save table to disk... menu where I enter '--' into the field "Text representing NA". The result is the same -- it works perfectly when saving to CSV file but does not work when saving to PDF.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong?

(I am using EViews 10+).

That is a bug. We will get it fixed in the next patch.
