No need to answer that one -- problem solved. The message below took three
days to appear on Techwr-L! But I was fortunate enough to find help on the
Word list last Friday.

I wonder if any of you have ever had this problem. None of the bullets in my
source Word 2002 file appear in the PDF version. I use Acrobat 5.0.5, and
used the PDFMaker macro in Word to create the PDF. I never had this problem
until I installed this macro. But I HAVE to use PDFMaker because it seems to
be the only way to make Word hyperlinks active in PDF, and this document has
lots of them.
I tried the TouchUp text tool in Acrobat, but even though I can select the
text that should be bulleted, I don't see any way to add bullets.
In Word, the bullets look fine, and they're black...can't figure this one
out, and I'm on deadline. Any ideas?
