Thanks. Now we're getting somewhere - that change to the CSS means I don't have the paragraph gap any more but the bullet is sitting too high relative to the text (see screenshot attached).
To drop that onto the baseline with the normal text I added
Code:
vertical-align:middle;
That makes it look okay in ADE (but maybe a little low). Doesn't look quite right in Sigil (so maybe iBooks too, but can't test it at the moment). is there another/better way to align the bullet?
