Text Formatting ⇒ No text bullets in cmss - warnings

[brokenclockwork]

Hey,

I have an issue on using sans serif font 'cmss'. It works without warnings until I start to use \begin{itemize} ... \end{itemize}.

This tex file should reproduce the warnings:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[a4paper,11pt]{article}

\begin{document}

\fontfamily{cmss}

\selectfont

\begin{itemize}
 \item Ipsum
\end{itemize}


\end{document}

The warnings are:

No file OMScmss.fd
Font shape 'OMS/cmss/m/n' undefined (font) using OMS/cmsy/m/n' instead(Font) for symbol textbullet
Some font shapes were not avaible, defaults substituted.

Actually I have no problem, because it compiles just fine, but these warnings really bug me

I would me pleased if someone could help me out

It is not necessary to do a double posting masked in another context [1]. You have already got useful answers to your first request. These still await your feedback.

The \textbullet symbol simply doesn't exist in the Computer Modern sans serif font. But finally you can ignore the message. It's only a warning.
