In addition to the settings in bullet, numbering, and outline styles, there is a paragraph
attribute called Minimum Bullet/Number Distance from Text (Style > Formats > Formats
tab). 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.

To control how the bullet is styled, choose an option from the Character Style drop-down
menu. Choose Inherit from Paragraph to use the paragraph's character formatting for
the bullet, or choose a character style sheet to use that character style sheet's formatting.
Enter the actual bullet character or characters in the Bullet Characters field.
If you are inheriting the bullet's formatting from the paragraph, you can change the size
of the bullet character or characters using the Size field.
The Outset value controls how far the bullet is from the paragraph. You can specify this
distance in Absolute units, or click Relative (in Ems) and specify the value in em spaces.
