To change the list style and the appearance of bullets, numbers, and letters, tap Bullets & Lists, then do any of the following:
Change the list style: Tap a new list style.
Change the number or letter sequence: Tap next to the style.
Tap Format, then choose a number or letter sequence.
Tap Back, then use the Edit List Styles controls to change the indent, color, and size of the letters or numbers.
Tap Text Bullet or Image Bullet, then do one of the following:
For text bullets: Tap a bullet style to apply it. To use a different character, tap “Tap to add” next to Custom Bullet, tap the character or emoji you want to use, then tap Return.
For image bullets: Tap an image bullet to apply it. To use a custom image, tap Custom Bullet, then choose an image, take a photo (tap Take Photo), or tap “Insert from” and choose an image.
To change the bullet size or alignment, tap Back and use the Edit List Style controls to make changes.
When you’re finished, tap the document to close the controls.
Changing the appearance of a list—by changing the bullet or number style or the spacing of indents, for example—results in style overrides, which are indicated by an asterisk next to the list style name.
If you want to keep the overrides without updating the style, do nothing. The text retains your changes, and an asterisk appears next to the list style name whenever you select or edit the list.
You can also update the list style with your changes so every item that uses the style gets an update. If you don’t want to keep the overrides, you can revert the list item back to the original list style.
Tap the bullet, letter, or number for a list item with an override, then tap , then tap Delete. If the style is used somewhere else in the document, a dialog asks you to choose a replacement style.
