@arne411 It is a known peculiarity. Windows “Symbol” font is a symbolic font (like “Webdings”, “Wingdings”, etc.) which uses Unicode PUA. Thus substitution of this font will cause different glyphs rendering. Provided Mac “Symbol” font on the other hand is a proper Unicode font (for example Greek characters are in the U+0370…U+03FF Greek and Coptic block). So these fonts are incompatible and Mac “Symbol” font cannot be used instead of Windows “Symbol” without additional actions. In this particular case you have to change the bullet codepoint from PUA U+F0B7 (or U+00B7 which also can be used in MW for symbolic fonts) to the U+2022 in the document to use the Mac “Symbol” font. See the following code for example:
Document doc = new Document("/Users/mac1/Downloads/BulletPoint.docx");
for (com.aspose.words.List lst : doc.getLists())
{
for (com.aspose.words.ListLevel level : lst.getListLevels())
{
if (level.getFont().getName().equals("Symbol") && level.getNumberFormat().equals("\uF0B7"))
{
level.setNumberFormat("\u2022");
}
}
}
doc.save("/Users/mac1/Downloads/out1.pdf");
