Name of Font set for Bullets in Word 2002

[Tom Duprex]

When I attempt to implement bullets, other than numbers or letters I get a
small rectangular block. The only thing I can think of is that a while back
I removed a bunch of fonts I never used that had I accumulated over the
years. In my enthusiasm I might have removed the Font that Word 2002 uses
for bullets. Can anyone tell me the font that provides the non-letter or
number bullets?


TIA

Yopu will want ro have various Symbol/Ding fonts installed:
symbol.ttf
wingding.ttf
at the least, and possibly
wingding2.ttf
wingding3.ttf
webding.ttf
as well.

To determine which font the bullets come from, select a bulleted paragraph
and Format > Bullets and Numbering > Customize > Font.
You can then set the bullet to be a particular character in a font that you
have. By default, most bullet shapes come from Wingdings.

Thanks Tom:

Symbol.ttf and wingding.ttf did it.
