Default Bullet Tab Font is ALWAYS Arial!


Stefan,

Have you, by any chance, been able to confirm that this problem exists? If you can find an example where this doesn't happen, I'd like to see it--maybe I could learn from it why it is not happening.....

Stefan,



I've looked for other correlation and have not found any. I've tried to change the font, and the tab is always Arial.

Hi Nathan,

it


I guess we will not find an example :-(.
In numbered paragraphs, the numbers are usually followed by a "Tab".
Alternatively you could choose "Space" or "Nothing".
The Tab however, and the Space as well, will be formatted with Arial.
(Maybe, it's easier to convert the tab stop values?)

The item was also discussed in a German forum one year ago:

Lisa,

Thank you! Your comments lead me to a solution. I wrote a program that turns off the tabs in the list templates and then adds back tabs by hand. I run it just before I distill the file. Works great!

I wish that Microsoft would fix this bug.

Best Regards,
Nathan

Just a thought: even without a macro, you can set the list format to use a
space, or nothing, to follow list items.
