Answer:

The character format of the number symbol in a numbered list item is contained in the paragraph character at the end of that item. If you just need to fix one or two numbered list symbols whose formatting somehow got changed:

1. Select the paragraph symbol at the end of a numbered list item (use the Show/Hide button ΒΆ on the Standard toolbar to display the paragraph marks).
2. Format the paragraph symbol (formatting applied here affects only the numbered list symbol).

To create a custom numbered list style, or to modify an existing list:

1. Select the list.
2. Choose Bullets and Numbering from the Format menu.
3. Click on the Numbered tab (the numbered list style you chose previously will be selected).
4. Click on the Customize button.
5. Click on the Font button. Any of the font attributes you apply here will affect only the number symbols in the selected list.
