Org Mode export bullets instead of numbers

Question

When exporting an Org-mode buffer to Text or ODT, I'm getting the following:

 1. Lorem
 1.1. Ipsum
 1.1.1. Dolor
 1.1.2. Sit

I'd like to change it to a bulleted list rather than numbered (closer to Org Mode view itself):

* Lorem
  + Ipsum
    - Dolor
    - Sit

(the specific bullets chosen are just an example).

How can I do that?

Answer 1

For the text/ascii exporter, I would say:

1. Add #+OPTIONS: num:0 H:0 in your org document
2. Customize the variable org-ascii-bullets to choose the character used for each level, for instance:

   (setq org-ascii-bullets '((ascii ?* ?+ ?-) (latin1 ?* ?+ ?-) (utf-8 ?* ?+ ?-)))
   

The following org document:

#+OPTIONS: num:0 H:0 author:nil toc:nil

* Toto
** Tata
*** Titi

will be exported in text/utf-8 as:

* Toto

  + Tata

    x Titi

The export to odt format should (I suppose) work in a similar fashion.
