Hi,


I am copying some content from plain text to an XML file and then to a DOCX file. In the XML file I get a special character  in the XML file and blank space in the DOCX file.

The bullet is lost in the DOCX file. How to get the bullets in the DOCX file ?

I have installed the TrueType fonts (Symbol & Wingding) to the Linux machine.

I tried to set the font folder using FontSettings.setFontFolder but still no luck.

I have attached the screenshot of the screen, XML file & DOCX file.

Thanks & Regards,

Hi Awais,


Thank you for your reply. I am generating an XML file with attributes and their values in Linux (CentOS). But when I open the generated XML file in gedit editor, the bullets appear as some character “0005” which becomes a space in the DOCX file. I think there in no problem with Aspose APIs. When I open the same XML file outside the Linux it shows me the bullets.

I think 0005 is ASCII code for space. Can you please suggest any workaround for this problem ?

Thanks & Regards,
