A bulleted list is a helpful tool that can easily display important information in an easy-to-read and efficient manner. Try to keep each bulleted item as short as possible and try not to put too many or not enough items. Staying between 2 and 10 items is a good rule of thumb but the quantity and length of your list can vary depending on its purpose. Use your best judgment and feel free to contact us if you have any questions.

To create a bulleted list:

Find the place on the page you wish to add your list.

Press “Enter” or “Return” and type your first item.
Press “Enter” or “Return” and type your second item.
Repeat this process until all items have been added.
After you’ve entered your final item, highlight every item you wish included in the list.
Click on the bulleted list button at the top of the screen. It has 3 small black dots and 3 sets of lines adjacent to the dots.
The items in your list should now each have a square, black dot next to them.
If you’d like to continue typing after the list, place your cursor at the end of your last item and press “Enter” or “Return”
Press the bulleted list button a second time and the bullet will disappear and you can continue typing in regular paragraph format.
