To use one of the image bullets that comes with Pages, choose Image Bullets and
choose an image from the scrolling list.
To use your own image as a bullet, choose Custom Image and choose an image in the
Open dialog that appears.

To change the size of an image bullet, specify a percentage of the original image size in
the Size field. Or, select the “Scale with text” checkbox and specify a percentage of the
text size; this option maintains the image-to-text size ratio of the bullets even if you
later change the font size of text.

To adjust the space between bullets and the left margin, use the Bullet Indent field. To
adjust the space between bullets and text, use the Text Indent field.
6
To position bullets higher or lower relative to text, use the Align field.
Use these techniques to add and indent bulleted items in your list:
 To add a new topic at the current indent level, press Return. If you’re working in a
table cell and “Return key moves to next cell” is selected in the Table Inspector, press
Option-Return instead.
 To create an unbulleted paragraph within a topic, press Return while holding down
the Shift key. If you’re working in a table cell and “Return key moves to next cell” is
selected in the Table Inspector, press Control-Return instead.
 To enter a new topic at the next lower indent level, press Tab. To enter a new topic at
the next higher level, press Shift-Tab. You can also click and hold a bullet, and then
drag to the right, to the left, down and to the right, or down and to the left.
If you’re working in a table cell and “Return key moves to next cell” is selected in the
Table Inspector, use the Indent Level controls in the List pane of the Text Inspector to
increase or decrease the indentation of list entries.
 To return to regular text at the end of your list, press Return and choose No Bullets
from the Bullets & Numbering pop-up menu. You may also need to adjust the indent
level.
If you’re working in a table cell and “Return key moves to next cell” is selected in the
Table Inspector, press Option-Return instead of Return.
