Text next to a circle

Post by SciFiWizard »

I'm wanting to create a section on a sheet that has choice circles on the left and text on the right and I have no idea where to start or if this is even possible in LaTeX. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi,

welcome to the forum!

Here is one of the possibilities:

Code: Select all

\documentclass{article}
\renewcommand{\labelitemi}{\Large$\circ$}
\begin{document}
\begin{itemize}
  \item First
  \item Second
  \item Third
\end{itemize}
\end{document}

That works perfectly! Thank you for the help. Is there any way that the circles could be a little bit bigger?

A bit bigger:

\renewcommand{\labelitemi}{\LARGE$\circ$}
A larger size would affect the list appearance.
