Creating: Create Lists and Tables

In many cases, lists and tables can enhance the readability of a document. You can use numbered and bulleted lists to present a series of information. You can use tables to show relationships among ideas and information. In addition, a well designed table can reduce the amount of space required to convey complex ideas and information. Tables are also useful for conveying numerical or categorical information. In the page shown below, Pete Jacquez has used a bulleted list and a table.
