Answer 1

First of all overwrite invoice.php in local (which is in Mage_Sales_Model_Order_Pdf_Invoice)

Before call _drawItem define a variable for $startTable=$this->y;

After _drawItem function

$page = $this->_drawItem($item, $page, $order);
                $page->setLineColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(0.5));
                $page->setLineWidth(0.5);
                $page->drawLine(25, $this->y + 12.5, 570, $this->y + 12.5);

$page->setLineColor(new Zend_Pdf_Color_GrayScale(0.5));

$page->setLineWidth(0.5);

$page->drawLine(25, $startTable,25,$this->y+12.5); 

$page->drawLine(185, $startTable,185, $this->y+12.5);

$page->drawLine(275, $startTable,275,$this->y+12.5);

$page->drawLine(345, $startTable,345,$this->y+12.5);

$page->drawLine(460, $startTable,460,$this->y+12.5);

$page->drawLine(570, $startTable,570, $this->y+12.5);
