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 lines text at the 1/2 inch mark from the left margin.

Hi al, a quick way to add bullets are if you hit shift 8. This give you a star which turns into a bullet once you hit space. I know this happens to me everytime I try and put a star in a document.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Bullets in MS Word 2013
Yeah, they don't necessarily help in using Jaws. The point is if you are writing a Word document and you want to make some specific points that will stand out as they are read in a printed format in particular, although I have embossed bulleted text in Braille before. Thinkk of it as being similar to an outline, except that they are unnumbered and generally all at the same level. Even if you have a documented that is bulleted, you can set Jaws using the speech schemes to not read those if you want to ignore them.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Bullets in MS Word 2013
How do the bullits help in using Jaws? The reason I ask, is because to me, just listening to them, they don't add anything to the understanding of the material and just are a form of verble clutter.

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.

Re: [JAWS-Users] Bullets in MS Word 2013
Control+Shift+L will not bring up a list of bullets; it will add filled round bullets. One way to bring up a list of bullets is to press Alt+H, followed by the letter U. Once the bullets library pops up, use your arrow keys to move to a bullet of your choice and press Enter.
