When working with text in photoshop, is there an easy way to create bullet points?

Thank you,

Yeah, pretty much what i've been doing. Just seems tedios for large amounts of copy. Was hoping there was some hidden highlight feature you could use to bullet point items like in a word doc or something.

Anyhoo, thanks for the help.

I don't know of any built-in way to do bullets in PS. Could be though. Normally you would do text layout in Illustrator or Quark or something. PS isn't known for it's typographic abilities...

Hey...if you know how to use the Character Map on a PC or KeyCaps on a Mac to add special characters in a Word document, the same thing will work in Photoshop.

I do it all the time.

Thank you all so much for the suggestions...they've already come in so very handy in the workplace.

Hope I can someday return the favor...

you can make one bullet hole (or a group, depends on what you want) into a brush so you dont have to do all of that work with the eliptical marquee
