Hi all I figured out how to correct the problem with the funky square. I used:
Tools>Options
Fonts
(checked) "apply replacement tables"
In the Font box I typed /starsymbol
/and selected Tahoma for the "replace with"
I used Tahoma because I liked the default bullet better with that font then the one that it used with the symbol font.

Just thought I'd share my solution :o)

Happy Birthday OOo~

I have just installed OOo 2 RC and have an issue with bullets. I've spent the last hour+ searching around and I can't find anything on the issue for this version. I did find something suggesting I didn't have a Starsymbol font. My default bullet is a funky square, like the square that shows up when you don't have a font or in the character font list for a blank key, so that sounded right, but I couldn't find anything else on the missing font. So can someone point in the right direction? And/or point me in the direction to learn how to use styles for bullets... and speaking of styles.

I had found an article on applying fonts written I think in 2004 that explained how to use styles step by step. The author wrote this up after he had wrote an article about using OOo. I know this is a wiggy request but maybe someone out there in user land knows what I'm talking about. I lost my HD and I hadn't backed up my bookmarks :o\

TIA!
