Bullet Characters are not selectable - 11/10/2007 9:26:12 AM    melissamcfall   Posts: 4 Joined: 11/10/2007 Status: offline I am trying to create a flyer and I wanted to use bullets within the text. The characters that appear under Text, Bullets and Numbering in either the default window or the advanced window, are not the ones that appear in the text. Has anyone else run into this problem? < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:25:10 PM > Post #: 1

I wanted to use bullets within the text... Did you click on the bullet icon on the text toolbar? I can choose any of the bullet styles from there and they all appear in the text box as expected.

For example, the first bullet option ofa dot comes out in my text as a lower case k. Thanks for the suggestion. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:25:29 PM > (in reply to lindarobin) Post #: 3

Do you need instructions on how to fix these situations? < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:25:38 PM > (in reply to melissamcfall) Post #: 4

I have never had this happen with any of my offer programs that use bullets such as MS Word. This is a new purchase of Print Shop 22. Thank you. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:25:48 PM > (in reply to lindarobin) Post #: 5

Please go here Updating Video Card Driver: 2000/XP/Vista/7/Mac OS X 10.4.0 and later < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 10/10/2010 6:06:42 PM > (in reply to melissamcfall) Post #: 6

I had a similar problem with a game my son just purchased so I hope this will fix that also. < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:26:10 PM > (in reply to lindarobin) Post #: 7

That's very helpful for other new users who may experience the same thing. I expect your son's game will function better now, too! < Message edited by Brandy redux -- 7/3/2010 9:26:20 PM > (in reply to melissamcfall) Post #: 8
