# ListItemStyle

The object for defining the style for bulleted or numbered lists in an article.

```
object ListItemStyle
```

## Discussion

Use the `ListItemStyle` object to define text formatting for a bulleted (unordered) or numbered (ordered) list. Put `listItemStyle` inside a [`TextStyle`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/TextStyle) object or [`ComponentTextStyle`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/ComponentTextStyle) object and set the text component’s `format` property to `html`. See <doc://com.apple.applenews/documentation/AppleNews/using-html-with-apple-news-format>.

You can use this object in [`TextStyle`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/TextStyle) and [`ComponentTextStyle`](/documentation/AppleNewsFormat/ComponentTextStyle).

### Example

```json
{
  "componentTextStyles": {
    "exampleStyle": {
      …
      "unorderedListItems": {
        "type": "character",
        "character": "✓"
      }
    }
  }
}
```
