Thank you for reporting this issue! I have been able to confirm the issue on: Version 3.6.6.2 Platform: Bodhi Linux 2.2 x64 @Domingo - a simpler test document would be nice if you are able to create one, also in the future please provide reproducible steps, observed and expected result like I did below, thanks! To Reproduce: 1. Open Document with mergemail fields (from...) 2. Go to Tools -> Mail Merge Wizard... 3. Go through mail merge wizard, selecting "use this document" *You may have to create a new table of contacts if one is not setup 4. Merge document Observed: Bullets are all messed up, unusable document Expected: Merge results in same document just with merged fields + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + As I've been able to confirm this problem on an earlier release I am changing the version number as version is the earliest version that we can confirm the bug, we use comments to say that the bug exists in newer versions as well. Marking as: New (confirmed) Major - unusable document with data loss (actually data addition but still not good) High - default, seems appropriate as making a mail merge with bullet points is common enough to warrant attention + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + LibreOffice is powered by a team of volunteers, every bug is confirmed (triaged) by human beings who mostly give their time for free.

This was originally fixed by my mail merge fixes but is now broken again.
