Sheila, I open a new Portrait document, type in a word and then pick Formats, Paragraphs, Bulleted. On a separate line I tried an alternative method given in the manual (Control+q Shift+%) Both methods show up correctly as a bullet when editing in FM. Then I choose File, Print and set Printer to Create Adobe PDF and Destination to File, Save, pick my file name and Save again. The PDF file created has a Y with the two horizontal lines for both versions of bullets. When I look at Format, Font I can see Times New Roman is ticked. Changing to Arial and repeating still results in the same problem. If I Save As a MS Word document the bullets are fine (viewing on a PC). Saving as html or rft and viewing on my Mac results in no visible bullets. This is a fresh installation of FM7 on Mac OS X 10.2 with FM upgrades applied. I could try exporting as postscript and running distiller manually but the instructions for doing this in the manual don't make much sense - following the export I still seem to end up with a PDF with the odd bullets.
