List Formatter
Turn plain lines into a bulleted, numbered, lettered, or Roman numeral list, with a starting number and nesting for indented items. Works with indented outlines.
How to use
- Paste your items, one per line.
- Choose the marker style and the starting number.
- Copy the formatted list.
A list formatter turns one item per line into a properly marked up list. It reads indentation as nesting, so a list pasted from an indented outline keeps its structure.
Output
Paste or type something above.
Questions about list formatter
- How is nesting detected?
- An item that starts with two or more spaces, or with a bullet character, is treated as one level deeper.
- Which style should I use for a legal document?
- Numbered, lettered, or Roman, in that order of depth, which is the usual convention.
- Can I start numbering at a different number?
- Yes, the starting number is a setting, so a numbered list can continue from where the previous one ended.
