Hi,

I think in a lot of business correspondence, we use what I think I could be described as 'floating dots'. What is the name? How many spaces from the left should it be?

The topics for this week's meeting:

  >> how many spaces?? (floating dot) How to better publicize our company products to the communities nearby,

 >> how many spaces??  (floating dot) How to manage worsening employees turnover rates,

.

Sorry, I couldn't make the 'floating dot' symbols here.

I think you are thinking of 'bullet points'.

  • Most software automatically puts in the space (indent) for you
  • Like this has
  • You could change this if you wanted by manually putting in a different indent
