Bar lines won't remain invisible
I'm selecting bar lines, choosing for them to be invisible, exporting to PDF and they are NOT invisible. I come back to the score, and they are marked visible again. This happens in multiple places and continues despite several attempts.
This is even true with the 'dotted' bar, which I believe is supposed to appear invisible by default? When I export the file you can see the line, even if I choose for it to be not seen.

What version of MuseScore, and can you post the specific score you are having problems with and precise steps to reproduce the problem? I am unable to reproduce any problem with barline visibitlity in MuseScore 2.0.2 - both export to PDF and save/reload seem to work fine in the scores I have tried it with.
Perhaps you are trying to do this with the system initial barline? That is not intended to be hideable. There is instead an option in Style / General / Barlines to control whether they get generated at all.
BTW, dotted barlines are not supposed to be invisible; they are supposed to be dotted :-)

I was able to export to PDF with the 'invisibility' intact.
Then I came back to the score, to print from the score itself… all the invisible bar lines appeared in the printed version, I had to print from the PDF.
Barline before letter B remains invisible as it's supposed to be.
But the ones containing the text before C, E, and in the last 2 bars, always reappear. I've tried using different style bar lines, with no success, they always reappear.

How are you making them invisible? I clicked the barline before C, pressed "V", saved, reloaded, and the barline stayed invisible. Ditt with the others. And when I generated PDF, they did not appear. Can you give the precise steps you are following that causes something different to happen?
FWIW, instead of invisible barlines, it would probably be more to the point to just increase stretch in a single measure to make it wider.

I didn't know about the 'V' shortcut. I was going into the inspector, deselecting the 'visible' option.
I tried it the way you described and it worked as it was supposed to.

I get the same result using the Inspector. If you can still reproduce this problem, can you give precise step by step instructions, starting with
