When you itemize
items you usually have the entire list indented. This is expected when you have a title or description of what you are listing. I want to itemize
but not have the natural indent. I need to move all of the bullet points over towards the the leftmost edge of the margin like all other text you would enter. How can I do this?
emumitem package is a convenient tool. Since version 3.6, it offers a key called "left", with which one can set two tabstops one for the start of label and another for the start of the text. For example in the following MWE:
documentclass{article}
usepackage{enumitem}
setlist[itemize]{align=parleft,left=0pt..1em}
%
begin{document}
%
begin{itemize}
item first item
item second item
end{itemize}
%
end{document}
align=parleft
aligns the label to left in the parbox of size labelwidth
. left=0pt..1em
means that the label (bullet symbol) begins at the margin, and the subsequent text (first item, second item etc.) start at 1em
from the margin.

Any customization of a list
environment, such as itemize
, enumerate
, etc, is most elegantly handled by the enumitem
package.
You can use leftmargin=*
locally,
begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*]
item one
item two
item three
end{itemize}
or else you use
setlist[itemize]{leftmargin=*}
in your preamble to make the change global.
documentclass{article}
usepackage[showframe=true]{geometry}
usepackage{enumitem}
begin{document}
begin{itemize}
item one
item two
item three
end{itemize}
begin{itemize}[leftmargin=*]
item one
item two
item three
end{itemize}
end{document}
