Working With Styles

To modify a bulleted or numbered list style:

1

Choose View > Show Styles Drawer (or click Style in the toolbar and choose Show

Styles Drawer), and select the bulleted or numbered list style that best matches the

one you want to design. (Be sure the insertion point is visible on the page in order to

select a list style.)

If the list styles are not visible in the Styles drawer, click the button with the bulleted

list at the bottom of the drawer.

2

Choose one of the following bullet or numbering styles from the Bullets & Numbering

pop-up menu in the List pane of the Text Inspector:

 No Bullet: Choose this if you don’t want visible bullets, but you want to be able to

specify the amount of indentation for levels in an ordered list.

 Text Bullet: Choose this to use a text character as the bullet. You can select one

from the list or type your own characters in the text field. Some fonts provide

symbols that can be used as interesting bullets. To use them, open the Character

Palette (choose Format > Font > Show Fonts, then choose Characters from the

Action pop-up menu). Select the bullet symbol in the Text Inspector, and then

double-click the symbol of your choice in the Character Palette. Then press the

Return key.

 Image Bullet: Choose this to use one of the available image bullets provided by

Pages, and then select one in the list.

Click to show list styles.

Select a color for the text
bullet.

For text bullets, choose an
available character or type a
character in the text field.
