Inserting Fancy Bullets and Rules

No doubt you've seen some highfalutin' pages that feature cool, multicolored graphical bullets and horizontal lines. These objects are not actual bullets and lines of the kind you create with the list buttons and the H. Line button. Instead, they're just inline images that look like bullets and lines (see Figure 25.13).

Figure 25.13. Fancy bullets and rules are just image files used in place of horizontal lines and list bullets.

Line-type images, sometimes called bars , are simply inserted between paragraphs. The bullets are inserted before individual lines of text, using any paragraph style other than List. (If you use List, you get your cool bullets plus the list's bullets or numbers . Icky.)

To get the best results when inserting a bullet image next to a line of text, align the image using At the Center alignment.
