In the Drop-Down Menu for Bullet Points, Go to the \u201cSymbols\u201d Area.<\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>To begin, select the section of the document that will serve as the location of the checkbox by clicking there. Next, in the \u201cHome\u201d tab\u2019s \u201cparagraph\u201d section, locate the small down arrow that is situated next to the bullet point icon.
