No bullets in lists

Hi,

I'm using AbiWord with Linux and in Linux several Windows True Type Fonts.
All Fonts work well, except Symbol.

The bullet character (coming from Symbol font) in lists isn't a bullet (0xb7,
U+2022 or U+2219), but the 'infinity' character which looks very strange.

While all fonts look OK in the "Insert Symbol" font table, only a few
characters show up for the Symbol font. Most entries are boxes with a hex
code in them.

Why is this? What is different with Symbol (comparing the the other fonts)?

Can anyone help or explain what to do to get proper bullets?

Another problem with lists: bullet and numbering characters all have a grey
background and I cannot change the font for bullets in the "Format -> Bullets
and Numbering" dialog. Is this as it is supposed to be?
