Usually when something that visually looks like a bullet in the middle of a
line, it is some type of special character or graphic.  Word will not let
you insert a bullet in the middle of a line without a serious fight.

I like it as well.  Very seldom have I seen bullets in the middle of lines,
but it does occur.

When using the bullet feature in MS-Word, it provides a very clean visual
appearance.  Let me see if I can explain.  The bullet will be up against the
left margin, or most frequently ¼ of an inch to the right of the left
margin.  This is called the hanging indent.  The start of the text will be a
little to the right of the bullet.  As an example, let's say that the bullet
is 1/4 of an inch wide, and the space between the bullet and the start of
the text is 1/4 of an inch.  This means that the text is starting 1/2 of an
inch away from the left margin.  This is called the left indent and is .5 of
an inch from the left margin.  If the text you are typing is longer than the
line and needs to wrap down to the next line, the start of that subsequent
line will be positioned right under the start of the previous line’s text at
the 1/2 inch mark from the left margin.  When you are at the beginning of a
line, you can use the Insert+f command to learn about the hanging indent and
left indent positions.  If JAWS announces Aligned left, then you know the
text is flush against the left margin and there is not a bullet at the start
of the information.    

 

The use of bullets makes it easier for the visual reader to quickly move
from one item to the next.  Personally, I find it also allows me to quickly
move through bulleted information with JAWS.  

 

HTH,

Annette

Hi.

 

I always type an asterisk with a space where I want my bullet.  For me this
is in bulleting paragraphs or sentences, and at the beginnings of lines.

Thanks. Will this take me to the list of choices of bullets?

Control shift L will begin insertion of bullets.

Pressing enter twice will end the insertion.

Afternoon all.

 

I was wondering if anyone would be so kind as to tell me the steps for
inserting bullets in a word document using Word 2013? I am using JAWS 17,
and a dell laptop. Many thanks in advance appreciation.

Jerry
