The problem is that this is for my resume and I am trying to create this format: You would think that Microsoft would have devised a simple way to resolve this but I don't have a clue how to do this. You will notice as below that as soon as I click on the bullet applet from the context menu, the bullet always appears before the text as below and I can't find a way to change that. Obviously, the context menu bullets have defaults I can't mirror with the insert menu bullets, but the only way I can insert a bullet midline is with the insert menu bullets. If I use the back button, they align slightly before the context menu bullets and if I advance the text one click, they align slightly ahead of the bullets in the context menu. The problem is that all bullets inserted that way don't align with bullets inserted by the context menu (they are a couple of pixels off). Upon looking into this further, I found that the only way I could create text followed by a bullet was by going to the insert menu, clicking on a bullet symbol that matched and inserting it after the text. You can see the problem below: I typed the word 'text' then clicked on the bullet tool and the bullet preceded the text instead of coming after it. Actually what I'm trying to do is create text followed by a midline bullet and have all the midline bullets align.
