Bullets and numbering
Rather than using manually created and formatted bullets and numbers, you can create
bulleted and numbered lists with bullet styles, numbering styles, and outline styles.
A bullet style describes how a bullet should look, how far it should be from the text, and
how it should be aligned.
A numbering style describes how a number should look, what format it should have, how
far it should be from the text, and how it should be aligned.
An outline style defines indents for up to nine indent levels. You can associate a bullet or
numbering style with each level. You can also choose whether to include the numbers
from previous levels, as you would in some types of outline.
To apply a bullet, numbering, or outline style, use the •/123 drop-down menu on the
right side of the Paragraph/Paragraph Attributes tab of the Measurements palette. If
you've applied an outline style, the Decrease Indent and Increase Indent buttons let you
increase and decrease a paragraph's indent level.

In addition to the settings in bullet, numbering, and outline styles, there is a paragraph
attribute called Minimum Bullet/Number Distance from Text:
• (Windows) Style > Formats > Formats tab
• (Mac OS X) On the Paragraph tab of the Measurements palette
This value lets you handle situations where a left-aligned or center-aligned number is
pushing into the paragraph.
Working with bullet styles
A bullet style describes how a bullet should look, how far it should be from the text, and
how it should be aligned.
To create a bullet style, choose Edit > Bullet, Numbering, and Outline Styles, then choose
Bullet Style from the New button in the Bullet, Numbering, and Outline Styles dialog
box. The Edit Bullet Style dialog box displays.
