Word can automatically add bullets or numbers to each item in a multilevel list (such as an outline with various headings and list items). Word indents each level in a multilevel list differently. If you select a multilevel bulleted or numbering style, Word adds different bullets or numbers to the items at each level and, in a numbered list, restarts the numbering at each sublevel under a heading.

Use one of several preset bulleted or numbered formats in a multilevel list, as well as create a custom format.
