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. 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.
