Modifying and Creating New List Styles

List styles are used to create bulleted and numbered lists. You can also create ordered

lists (outlines) by using a tiered numbered list style, such as Harvard or Legal. If you

can’t find a list style that meets your needs, you can modify one of the existing list

styles, or create a new one.

Use the List pane of the Text Inspector to modify or create new list styles. The

Inspector allows you to choose different bullets or numbering styles (for example,

Arabic numerals versus Roman numerals). For bullets, you can choose from a variety

of text symbols or images supplied by Pages, or you can use an image of your own, or

have no visible bullet at all.

To open the List pane of the Text Inspector:

1

Choose View > Show Inspector (or click the Inspector button in the toolbar).

2

Click the Text Inspector button, and then click List.
