SYMPTOMS
When you create a publication that contains bullet tabs and then print the publication on a Hewlett-Packard CLJ 8500-PS printer, the bullets may appear as a series of E characters instead of a series of dots.



CAUSE
This behavior can occur because the Hewlett-Packard CLJ 8500-PS printer is printing with its built-in printer fonts instead of the TrueType fonts that you selected in Publisher.



WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, force the printer to use TrueType fonts in place of built-in printer fonts. To force your printer use TrueType fonts, follow these steps:
 * 1) Click Start, point to Settings and then click Printers.
 * 2) In the Printers dialog box, double-click HP CLJ 8500-ps.
 * 3) On the Printer menu, click Properties.
 * 4) In the HP CLJ 8500-ps PostScript Properties dialog box, click the Fonts tab.
 * 5) On the Fonts tab, click Always use TrueType fonts, and then click Ok.
