I don't think there is a document, but the list is below, with my notes:
  1. Datetime - For a date & time
  2. Email - Email address
  3. Float - For numbers with decimal values
  4. Formula - See here: https://community.marketo.com/MarketoArticle?id=kA050000000Kyp3CAC
  5. Integer - For whole numbers
  6. Percent - Percentages ;)
  7. Phone - Phone numbers, functionally I think this works like text
  8. Score - Scores, which are whole numbers
  9. String - Shorter text
  10. Text Area - Longer text
  11. Url - Functionally like text, but web addresses

thank you Erik!

Can you also tell me where I would go to get info. on creating new answer choices or picklist values for a new custom field in Marketo? Note: I'm creating new custom fields for an event that will not get synced with SF.
