 // Set the "SimplifyListLabels" property to "true" to convert some list
 // symbols into simpler ASCII characters, such as '*', 'o', '+', '>', etc.
 // Set the "SimplifyListLabels" property to "false" to preserve as many original list symbols as possible.
 txtSaveOptions.setSimplifyListLabels(simplifyListLabels);

 // each time we need them to display accurate values.
 builder.write("Page ");
 builder.insertField("PAGE", "");
 builder.write(" of ");
 builder.insertField("NUMPAGES", "");
 builder.insertBreak(BreakType.PAGE_BREAK);
