Hello,
I'm vectorizing my text blocks for the printer but the bullet points disappear during the vectorization process.
I've tried using other standard fonts, and the result is the same. How can I keep or vectorize a bullet point?
Thank you.
Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 22.0.1229.94

Hello,
It doesn't work if you've applied "Bullet List." The bullet in list format cannot be vectorized.
To vectorize the bullets, you first need to convert the bullets to text by selecting the relevant paragraphs.
Then it works:

But, a quick question: why vectorize your text? Aren't you delivering a PDF to your printer?

The conversion of bullet points > text works well for me, thank you!
However, be careful, the bullet points once converted take on the original style of what follows. So for a style that has undergone a slight modification, it disappears.
Forced line breaks also disappear, strangely...
Make sure to check this BEFORE vectorizing!

I believe we can embed fonts in a PDF, but how do we do that?
