Hi,
We are receiving several reports from our customers of problems converting to PDF of ODT documents containing bulleted lists.
The indentation of bullet points is incorrect.
The problem has been reproduced with version 24.9 of Aspose.Word for Java.

We are receiving continuous reports from our customers regarding this indentation issue when converting to PDF.
I have verified that the problem continues to occur even with version 25.7 of Aspose.Words for Java.
The case was opened several months ago and has not yet been addressed.
How many months must we wait and how many license upgrades must we perform to see the issue resolved?
Thank you

The problem occurs even with version 25.9 of Aspose.Words for Java.

From further investigation, I believe the problem is due to the fact that for those paragraphs, the values ​​of getTabPosition() and getTextPosition() are different: 0 and 36 points respectively. Tab position appears to be incorrect.
