dotted line turning into squares

In Pages, when I create a line or the outline of a shape and I choose round dots as the style, and I then either export it as a PDF or as a JPG, the circular dotted lines appear as square-dots. Why? How I do fix this? It is making me crazy!

A nice little bug in Pages v7.3. If you set that dotted border to 2pt they will appear as squares. If you set the border size to 3 pt, they remain as dots. Preview and Adobe Acrobat Reader DC v2019.010 both agree on the results.
