How to apply style during rendering of xls

I have a report in which I want cells in my cross tab to have dotted upper and lower borders. I have tried adding a script to the cells that is called during onCreate and onRender (tried individually too). With the following script: 
 
<pre class='_prettyXprint _lang-auto _linenums:0'>
this.getStyle().borderBottomStyle = "dotted";
this.getStyle().borderTopStyle = "dotted";
</pre>
 
I can see the dotted cells when I am previewing my report, but when I generate the reports using genReports.sh. The resulting xls does not have the dotted top and bottom borders. What am I missing here? 
 
Thank you.

What is your BIRT version? I get dotted lines in my output to XLS if I use this script in the onCreate of my cell. I am just running XLS from the designer though. Do you see it from XLS from the designer, but not using genReports?
