HI Everyone;

I'm trying to figure out how to change the default font of the TAB that
follows a bulletted character.

In a few important documents I regualrly convert them to Adobe PDF, and I'm
trying to minimize the number of used and embedded fonts.

The only reason the Arial font keeps showing up in my PDF is because, for
some reason, the tab character following my bullets is formatted as Arial,
even though the font of the bullet (as it is set using normal procedures) is
a different font.

Can anyone help? Is there any way to change the tab character to be a
different font???

Which version of Word are you using?

How did you create the bulleted list?

I have the exact same problem. Did you ever figure this out?

I am using word 2010. I see this problem with both printing to PS and with save as PDF. I even have this problem if I make a blank document using my normal template and just put a bullet list in it. I believe my normal template to be unmodified. I have used a custom rule in Acrobat Pro's preflight checks to identify the arial tab....

Which font is being used for the bullet? If it is a symbol font, perhaps
there is no tab character in its character set. Similar replacements occur
all the time behind the scenes, when a particular character is not available
in the font applied to text.

Stefan,

Thank you for replying! I have checked. Word does this with all lists--Even ones with numbers in Times New Roman.

I can consistently reproduce this problem by making a blank document from my normal template, putting a numbered list in, and then saving to PDF (or by printing to PS and converting with ghostscript).

If word has an "automatic" font I want for it to be something that I can choose. Is there a registry entry, prehaps, for this?

Regards,
Nathan
