This file gets "corrupted" on conversion to .docx.

When I create bullets in an .odt they are converted to "X" in the .docx.

I created a sample test file (which I will attach) with a couple of bullets.  It looks fine in .odt but if I save it as a .docx and reopen the .docx file it shows as "X" instead of bullets.

I am trying to apply to a job and this conversion problem is ruining my
formatting.

Test files and result files attached.

Also happens on 3.5.4.

Thank you very much for your bug report!

This is more or less the same issue as bug 46271, therefore I mark this report as a duplicate of the latter. Any discussion (if necessary) should be continued on the page for bug 46271.

Thank you again!

Bug 46271 is a bug about scrollbars.  This is a bug about the content of an actual file.  This bug is not a duplicate of that bug.

Oh, sorry! This was my mistake -- somehow I copied the wrong bug ID. I meant bug 50284 - “FILEOPEN .doc/.docx (MSO2007) Bullet lists show wrong bullet symbols MacOS X”. It seems different (FILESAVE vs. FILEOPEN), but IMHO *this* is really the same issue. So let us try this again ...
