Need Help with a Bulleted List in a Template

Each multilevel list format requires a list style and (up to) nine paragraph styles (one paragraph style per numbering level).

OK, in this context, "multilevel list format" means a combination of a list style and paragraph styles used to apply a consistent set of bullet formatting to a specific Heading level, correct?

So, if I want 5 bullet levels per heading level:

For H1, I will need a List Style 1 and Bullet Styles 1-1, 1-2, 1-3, 1-4, 1-5
For H2, List Style 2, and Bullet Styles 2-1, 2-2, 2-3, 2-4, 2-5

repeat as necessary for additional heading levels.

thanks,
Jim

And the answer to my own question is Yes.

So I'm well on my way to finalizing the styles for the template. Next steps are creating the templates, and preparing the presentation to introduce the new template to the team and to explain to them what styles are and why they ARE going to use them.

Thanks for the various bits of advice.

List styles are not exclusively for heading styles, as I'm sure you already know.

The key is that the nine numbering levels of a list style each should be associated with a unique paragraph style.
