Space between bullet and text in a list item in Word

[kcann]

WebHelp and PDF output looks fine for bulleted lists that extend beyond a single line, but in Word, they have a first line indent that I cannot seem to fix. I have all of my list items wrapped in paragraphs.

Is there a stylesheet setting to correct this problem?

Thanks!

Check to see if you changed the list-style-position on the <li> tag to something other than the default (not set). The default setting will give you the effect you want. And make sure you check it for all mediums in the stylesheet.

I've checked the list-style-position for all mediums, and they are all 'not set'. The problem only happens in Word.

Thanks!

The 'text-indent' property defaults to 1 px.

Weird. I know Word doesn't like it if you use a custom image for the bullet, but I thought most other aspects from list styles came over correctly. Of course, I don't build Word output anymore so my memory may be faulty.

Perhaps this is related to the hanging indent paragraph property in Word? Flare seems to set a first line indent instead. Also, my list items contain paragraphs, which don't seem to come through in Word as styles.
