Description dridgway 2008-12-30 23:18:55 UTC 
Mac OS X 10.5.6, OOo 3.0.0 Aqua build 9358 downloaded from openoffice.org.
Attached file was created in OO, bulleted list created, and saved as File Type
Microsoft Word 97/2000/XP (.doc). All looked fine, but when I close and reopen
the file, the bullets are replaced by funny characters. It could be a font
thing, I've attached a screenshot to show what's on my screen. I've seen a
similar thing in files which come from native Office, and the characters remain
on export to PDF and in hardcopy printouts. The bullets appear normally when the
file is opened in NeoOffice.
