Default Bullets within Similar Styles - Different Line Height

I have created a Table, into which I enter text in adjacent cells. In one cell I have created a Style which incorporates a Bullet, with various paragraph formatting. In the adjacent cell, I enter text, with a style having no bullet, but the same paragraph formatting. Yet, when several lines of text are entered in each cell, the adjacent cells' text do not "line up" across the page. There always seems to be some added line height when the bullets are incorporated. How do I correct this?

Is the bullet character from the same font as the text? if not, it may have built-in properties that make it take up more vertical space than your body text.

Hi
You need to check the line spacing, space before and space after for both Styles that you are using to make sure they are the same. From your post it appears that they both differ.
Good luck.
Tony

For both styles, set a fixed value (in points) for line spacing.

Line Spacing setting was EXACTLY the cure! Thanks!
