Bulleted list and numbered list
A quick way to create a bulleted or numbered list is to type the list, select it, and then click the Bulleted List or
Numbered List button in the Control panel. These buttons let you turn the list on or off and switch between bullets
and numbers. You can also make bullets and numbering part of a paragraph style and construct lists by assigning styles
to paragraphs.
Note: Automatically generated bullet and number characters aren’t actually inserted in the text. Therefore, they cannot
be found during a text search or selected with the Type tool unless you convert them to text. In addition, bullets and
numbering don’t appear in the story editor window (except in the paragraph style column).
For a video tutorial on creating bulleted and numbered lists, see www.adobe.com/go/vid0077 .
InDesign Docs provides a series of articles about using bullets and numbering to create outlines , multi-level lists , figure
captions , and numbered steps .
1 Select the set of paragraphs that will become the list, or click to place the insertion point where you want the list to
begin.
2 Do any of the following:
• Click the Bulleted List button or the Numbered List button in the Control panel (in Paragraph mode). Hold
down Alt (Windows) or Option (Mac OS) while clicking a button to display the Bullets And Numbering dialog box.
• Choose Bullets And Numbering from the Paragraph panel or Command panel. For List Type, choose either Bullets
or Numbers. Specify the settings you want, and then click
OK.
• Apply a paragraph style that includes bullets or numbering.
3 To continue the list in the next paragraph, move the insertion point to the end of the list and press Enter or Return.
4 To end the list (or list segment, if the list is to be continued later in the story), click the Bulleted List or Numbered
List button in the Control panel again, or choose Bullets And Numbering from the Paragraph panel menu.
