Use the Add method to create a pattern for bulleted, numbered or multilevel list. The NumberingListBase.NumberingType property define the list type.

Document document = server.Document;
document.BeginUpdate();

// Create a new list pattern object
AbstractNumberingList list = document.AbstractNumberingLists.Add();

//Specify the list's type
list.NumberingType = NumberingType.Bullet;
ListLevel level = list.Levels[0];

//Set the left indent of the list
level.ParagraphProperties.LeftIndent = 100;

//Specify the bullets' format
//Without this step, the list is considered as numbered
level.DisplayFormatString = "\u00B7";
level.CharacterProperties.FontName = "Symbol";

//Create a new list based on the specific pattern
NumberingList bulletedList = document.NumberingLists.Add(0);

// Add paragraphs to the list
ParagraphCollection paragraphs = document.Paragraphs;
paragraphs.AddParagraphsToList(document.Range, bulletedList, 0);

document.EndUpdate();
