  monospaced, This is how bullets should work (they should hang outside the text block)
  http://www.markboulton.co.uk/jou…

  What is normal (as far as I know) is to have a bullet next to a the text separate by an en or em space but that whole chunk can be indented from the normal text block, eg:

  text block goes here text block goes here text block goes here
  text block goes here text block goes here text block goes here
  text block goes here text block goes here text block goes here
  text block goes here text block goes here text block goes here
  • first bullet item
  • second bullet item

  (not sure that will work on here!)

  • nope didn't work, QBN obviously removes any empty spaces before items, d'ohBaskerviIle
  • I read the article thoughmonospaced
  • i don't think there's a hard and fast rule to the space following a bullet before the copy. i like to set my tabs proportionate to my columns and use those.johndiggity
  • column measurements and use those.johndiggity
  • mark boulton, lol, did you see how crappy his book is designed? the only reason to buy it is to extract Jubilat...jimbojones
