AntiqueFlaneur Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 When placing text in a text box from a docx file, bullet points don't seem to display properly. There's just an empty box there. If I delete the empty box and hit the bullet point button again, another empty box appears. How can I fix this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
walt.farrell Posted October 5, 2020 Share Posted October 5, 2020 Is the font in the original document one you have installed? Does the font contain the bullet character that you're trying to use?

Then it is possible the new font you chose doesn't have those characters. Do they show up in the Glyph Browser for that font?
