A bulletted list which looks fine in the editor will be lost upon compiling for LibreOffice. However, if I first select the list item and press tab and then compile, it appears. However, it is then indented in LibreOffice also. Are there settings that will alleviate this problem?
I use the OpenOffice target for compiling.
Try compiling to RTF instead. Unfortunately the ODT converter we have access to does not handle lists very well; we’ve been working to improve this, but there are still some weird quirks. RTF should give you better formatting and preserve more of the features in general (e.g. you’d want this for proper footnotes), and you can resave to ODT in LibreOffice if needed.
