If you copy a nested bulleted list (a list within a list) from a word processor
and paste the list into a multiline text, the bullets that are displayed as empty
circles might not be formatted like other bullets in multiline text. This is
because the bullet might be a letter, such as o, instead of a bullet for nested
bulleted lists. You can remove formatting from the nested list and reapply to
change the bullets to double bullets.
To format multiline text as a list
1 Click Home tab ➤ Annotation panel ➤ Multiline Text.
2 Specify opposite corners of a bounding box to define the width of the
multiline text object.
3 To expand the Text Formatting toolbar, click Options button ➤ Show
Options.
4 If you are converting multiline text to a list, select the paragraphs.
NOTE List formatting is only available when the Allow Bullets and Lists option
is checked (the default).
