John, from my experience on the PC side, this is an indication that the bullet character is getting mis-identified either because the specific font you're using doesn't have a bullet in the position where FM is expecting it to be, or more likely because the way you're entering the bullet is causing the problem.

Can you explain how you're entering the bullet -- you say "in a fresh document" but how exactly is the bullet being entered? Are you using an auto-numbered Paragraph tag, with the \b entered? If so, are you assigning a Character tag also? If not, how exactly are you entering the bullet?

What font is it that you expect the bullet to display in, and is that font on your system?

Did the source material come from another source, e.g. a Word document that you copy/pasted the content from? This is often

If you create a brand new standard "Portrait" document in FM, what happens when you apply the "Bulleted" Paratag?
