I am trying to convert a Word document to a .pdf. The conversion works fine,
except that certain symbols I have set up in Word styles are changed to
something else in the .pdf. For example, my bullet style displays as a
hyphen. I have searched the archives and Adobe help, but I can't figure out
what's wrong. I've tried the Embed Fonts option from the print option in
Word, but that hasn't helped.
Any clues? Of course, this is for a document due this morning.
