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 Bullets: 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 Bullets: 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 Characters window (choose

your choice in the Characters window. Then press the Return key.
