Hello Elizabeth,

It sounds like either Works forgot where it put the fonts or they were somehow deleted. The bullets that you use are actually special characters contained in font files.

Run Works setup. In some versions there will be an option to just install fonts. If you don't see that option you will have to reinstall the entire Works. You should not have to uninstall your old copy first.

Hope this helps
