I assume that you mean with "save to doc" you mean to save to Microsoft Word binary file format (Microsoft Word 95/XP/2003". Please correct me, if my assumption is not correct.

If my assumption is correct, then the root cause for this issue is that our export filter to Microsoft Word binary file format lacks the ability to export graphic bullets. This export function is simply not implemented so far as I know.

I figured out that the same is true for import of Microsoft Word binary document containing graphic bullets. The import is not able to handle it.

I wonder, if the contributed Symphony code already contains the solution for this issue.
