Created attachment 42854 [details] .lwp '97 file with a bullet point in the default style The default bullet point style is replaced by a square box when a .lwp document is opened in Writer. I believe the default bullet point style in Word Pro '97 is from the Wingdings font, specifically 'circle4' which has ANSI character code number 0x49 in hex, which is 159 in decimal. Most of the other built-in bullet point styles in Word Pro also uses Wingdings characters, but these are rendering OK in Writer. I believe something's going wrong during the .lwp import process. Saving the .lwp as a .odt in Writer and then examining the styles.xml the XML relating to the default bullets shows it as: <text:list-level-style-bullet text:level="10" text:bullet-char=""> That is with seemingly no character selected. Compare with a bullet point in a different style that does work OK in Writer: <text:list-level-style-bullet text:level="1" text:bullet-char="§"> Where § has the same character code number as the desired symbol in Wingdings. I've attached an .lwp document as an example of the broken bullet point.
[This is an automated message.] This bug was filed before the changes to Bugzilla on 2011-10-16. Thus it started right out as NEW without ever being explicitly confirmed. The bug is changed to state NEEDINFO for this reason. To move this bug from NEEDINFO back to NEW please check if the bug still persists with the 3.5.0 beta1 or beta2 prereleases. Details on how to test the 3.5.0 beta1 can be found at: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugHunting_Session_3.5.0.-1 more detail on this bulk operation: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/RFC-Operation-Spamzilla-tp3607474p3607474.html
Seem to have the same problem: When saving a document as a 2003 .doc file, the bullets reappear as different signs. Often as signs from another font - in my case the musical mf sign.
Dear bug submitter! Due to the fact, that there are a lot of NEEDINFO bugs with no answer within the last six months, we close all of these bugs. To keep this message short, more infos are available @ https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/NeedinfoClosure#Statement Thanks for understanding and hopefully updating your bug, so that everything is prepared for developers to fix your problem. Yours! Florian
