Hello,

In this example, at the bottom, I have several bullets (see blue line) where I have not used some tab stops.

Do you advise me to use tab stops in that case (for these bullets) ?

Hi,

Do you want tab stops after the colon? I would not do this. In another section you might need tabs at other positions. Do you then make paragraph overrides (which will get lost at some point)? Or new paragraph formats?

You could convert the paragraphs into a table, if you really want a separation.

Best regards, Winfried

Hi Winfried,

In fact, I was wondering if I need to put a tab stop between the bullet and the begining of the text (see at left here), where the tab stop if for the begining of the text :

Yes. This makes sense. But not with manual tabs. Use the paragraph numbering. Enter your bullet and \t for a tab. Then set the indentation and the tab stop position.
