Setup the format of bullet lists for all new documents

S

ScubaDan

One of the secretaries in my office likes her bullet points to have an
indent of 0cm and the text to start at 1cm. When I set this up and
save the document as Normal.dotm it always reverts back to the default
settings when I open a new document. Does anyone have any ideas how I
can configure word so that it will always format bullet lists as she
wishes?

Save the settings to a *paragraph style* in the Normal template. For
example, you can modify the built-in List Bullet style to suit your needs.

And there is a built-in keyboard shortcut of Ctrl+Shift+L to apply the List
Bullet style.
