Watch the video! (7:40 min)

You can use bulleted or numbered lists to draw attention to certain parts of your publication. They can help you break large blocks of text into much smaller and easier-to-read chunks. You can also change the style of the numbers or bullets in your lists.

To create a list:

• Select the text you want to format as a list.
• Click the Number or Bullet list icon on the Formatting toolbar.
• Position your cursor at the end of a list item, and press the Enter key to add an item to the list.
• To remove numbers or bullets from a list, select the list and click the Number or Bullet list icon, whichever corresponds to the type of list.

To customize lists:

• Select all text in an existing list.
• Select Format Bullets and Numbering on the main menu. The Bullets and Numbering dialog box will appear.
  
  
  
  
• Click the Bullets or Numbers tab corresponding to your list.
• Depending on the type of list, you can change the following:
  • Bullet character or number format
  • Bullet or number size
  • Spacing between bullet or number and text
• To use a different character as a bullet:
  • Click Character in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box.
  • Select a font from the list to see the available characters.
  • Select a character, then click OK.
  • Click OK in the Bullets and Numbering dialog box.
