Creating Bullets When Using the Text Tool

There are a couple of ways to add bullets to text in PSP:

The first way is very simple, and will work with many fonts:
Choose the Text tool.
Click on the image where you want to place the text - this will put you into "text edit", either in the Text Entry box, or directly on the image (PSP X3+).
Type the text you want bulleted.
Move the cursor in the Text Entry box or on the image to the location where you want to place the bullet, hold down the ALT key and type 0149 using the Numeric Keypad on your keyboard. Sometimes a smaller or square bullet can be created by typing 0183 instead.
The second method uses the Windows Character Map program:
Choose the Text tool.
Click on the image where you want to place the text - this will put you into "text edit", either in the Text Entry box, or directly on the image (PSP X3+).
Type the text you want bulleted.
Return to Windows and choose Start, click on Run, and type CharMap in the Run Open box - this will bring up the Character Map dialog.
Choose any installed font from the Font drop-list at the top of the dialog.
When you find a bullet you like, click the Select button, and then the Copy button.
Return to PSP, place the cursor where you want the bullet, and press CTRL + V to paste the bullet. You might need to backspace to return the text to the same line as the bullet.

Note: In PSP X3, the second method does not appear to work if you are editing text directly on the image. However, if you activate the Text Entry box to edit text (SHIFT + LEFT-CLICK), this method works.
