Description Unknown 2002-12-05 07:11:25 UTC
When using a document created under a ms word 97 template and then imported to open office the 
bullet characters do not print.  I have tried changing the bullet character manually as well as the 
paragraph style and the result is the same.

In OOo 1.0.2, I opened a .doc file that contained bullets and was
created in MSOffice for Win95.  Indeed the bullets did not print.  The
font is Book Antiqua.  The bullets printed like squares (like an
unrecognized character).  The printer is an HP laserjet 3200se.

Change priority from P2 to P3. Set oooqa keyword and confirmed issue.

I cannot reproduce the problem rught from the scratch. Could you
please attach such an offending document (or better: the offending
part of it) to this issue (and re-open issue) (or send it directly to
mru@openoffice.org for the case it contains confidential data. Thank
you very much!

Printout looks good on Windows XP. Seems to be a problem with the
Win98 printer driver.
Comment 7 diane 2003-02-10 18:05:30 UTC
My screen view shows no bullets in win98 either.  I can see the
bullets if I open word and look at it thru that.  
Comment 8 michael.ruess 2003-02-11 10:09:35 UTC
Ah, the bullets are not even displayed on the screen. This is a known
issue with OpenOffice on Win98. Have a look at issue #9917, there the
problem is also described. Thus I close this one as duplicate.

Closed this issue after reviewing it on Win98. Issue is duplicate to
#9917.
