When adding a bulleted list (using Markdown) the items in the list get a smaller font. This seems to be a Glide-thing, as it doesn’t happen on [https://dillinger.io/](https://dillinger.io/)

Any idea how to make the font size of the items the same as the rest of the text?

Hi @DQ_team, how are you? 👋

In some of the text components including using markdown, you can change the font size and weight (heading 1, 2, 3 etc.).

How about a bulleted list using interpunct or Japanese dot?

・Interpunct

- Normal bullet

Thanks for your reply nathanaelb!

I would love to use interpunct or normal bullets, but I can’t seem to get it to look good. Especially when using items that go over more than 1 line the indentation is skewed. Any tips?

Well, this isn’t ideal, but it might work. You can apply a font size style to each bullet item, which seems to match the size of non-bulleted text.

```auto
Hello Friend
* <span style="font-size:medium;">Hello Friend</span>
* <span style="font-size:medium;">Test2</span>

```

I don’t know what glide uses for a markdown engine, or if it’s their own version. I have noticed some differences as well compared to dillinger as well
