Description
This was sent by Cliff to IEEE on Oct 10, 2001.

This is only one of many formatting problems,
but I submit it separately as one of Cliff's bug reports.

"What happened to the bulleted lists between Draft 6 and this IEEE copy?
Examples: Page 179 - section 12.2 - list after 2nd paragraph,
Page 354 - Section 19.4 - list at bottom of page"

************************************************************
See issue #169.

Apparently problem occurred with TimesNewRoman fonts.
The "em dashes" did not print in IEEE.
When these are converted to Times font, which appears
almost identical, it comes out OK.

On my Unix FrameMaker, TimesNewRoman gets converted to
Times anyway, so it still comes out OK.

However, in 2001b, IEEE did not fix all the places.

In particular, some of the NOTEs are still in TimesNewRoman,
so they did not come out even in 2001b.

The solution is to convert all paragraphs with "em dashes"
in TimesNewRoman to Times.

************************************************************

Fix
Make sure all dashed lists come out in PDF.

Find dashed lists which still did not come out in 2001b,
and fix them as well.

The solution is to convert all paragraphs with "em dashes"
in TimesNewRoman to Times.
