How to make lists in arabic to show from right to left
In some cases it is needed to create a multilevel list with different features, for example to show numbers
from right to left.
Creating a multilevel list
Multilevel lists can contain numbered and bulleted lists. This is a very useful feature, because if you add
a paragraph in the middle of a numbered list or rearrange the order of the paragraphs in a list, Word
automatically renumbers the paragraphs so that they retain their sequence.
Creating numbered lists
Numbered lists are created in a manner similar to bulleted lists, except that instead of bullets Word places
sequential numbers. This is a very useful feature, because if you add a paragraph in the middle of a
numbered list or rearrange the order of the paragraphs in a list, Word automatically renumbers the
paragraphs so that they retain their sequence.
Create lists with AutoFormat or turn it off
You can create standard numbered and bulleted lists by typing in a way that triggers the AutoFormat
feature to apply list formatting.
Creating, updating, locking and unlocking links
Automatic update of the embedded and linked objects is extremely powerful feature of Microsoft Word, but it
could be boring for a large document. Locking a link prevents the object from being updated by the original
application file, such as an Excel spreadsheet file.
Adding captions with AutoCaption
Use the AutoCaption feature if you want to add captions to all items of a particular type
automatically.
Adding callouts to objects
A callout is a type of text box that also includes a line for pointing to any location on the document. A
callout is helpful when you need to identify and to explain parts of a picture.
