Export function does not export text behind a bullet point.

When exporting a novel crafter document, any text used with a bullet point inside of a crafter does not export from novel crafter into Microsoft Word. The word document doesn't contain any of the text that comes after a bullet point.

This is a known issue with the word export and is even shown inside the app when you pick the word format (see image).
Sadly, the way lists work inside of Word documents is quite difficult and requires a lot more work to cover all the edge cases (like: there's no real concept of a list inside of word, and it's all just paragraphs that happen to be indented).
One workaround you can use right now is to export the novel as HTML, and then open the HTML inside of word. This should show up all lists just fine :)

spaceemotion when you read that not all features are supported without it describing those features, and you see it many times, it is impossible to remember what it impacts. I too even filed a bug report over this because I did not make the connection. Either fix it, or make it clearer what is messed up. Missing text in a novel is a BAD thing.
