Reply To: Bullet list para space after

Sorry I’m replying after two weeks.

I’m in book publishing and I’d say that 99 percent of the time we always have space before and after a bulleted list (not between, though). Exceptions may be sub-bulleted lists within bulleted lists. Then those are usually closed up. A numbered list within a bulleted list or a bulleted list within a numbered list is a toss-up. Sometimes they want space before and after, but if the lists are short, they are closed up.

I don’t know if there is really a definitive answer.
