2. Bulleted and numbered lists can be used in your presentation to arrange and format text on slides to draw emphasis to specific information. Also, lists can often be easier for the audience to read than paragraphs of text on a slide. In this lesson, you will learn how to modify existing bullets, change bullet style, switch to a numbered list, remove bullets and numbers, and select symbols as bullets.
3. Some slide layouts include a content placeholder where you can add text, or use graphical commands to insert tables, charts, SmartArt graphics, pictures, clip art, and media clips. On these slides, a bullet appears to the left of the placeholder text. If you choose to add text, rather than using one of the graphical commands to insert an item, the text is formatted into a list by default.
4. To Insert Text as a List in a Content Placeholder: Select the placeholder. The placeholder text will disappear and the insertion point will appear to the right of the bullet. Enter text. If the text requires more than one line, it will automatically wrap to the following line. Press the Enter key. A new bullet will appear on the following row. Repeat the last two steps until all the information is entered in list format on the slide.
