Controlling indentation
You can specify indents for selected paragraphs in the following ways:
• Use the Style > Alignment submenu
• (Windows only): Use the Paragraph Attributes dialog box (Style > Formats)
• Use the Paragraph/Paragraph Attributes tab of the Measurements palette
Use the following fields to specify the indents:
• To specify how far a paragraph is indented from the left edge of a box or column, enter
a value in the Left Indent field.
• To specify how far the first line of a paragraph is indented from the Left Indent value,
enter a value in the First Line field. Note that First Line indentation is relative to the
Left Indent applied to a paragraph. For example, if you specify a Left Indent of .5",
and a First Line indentation of .5", the first line will begin 1" from the left edge of the
text box.
• To specify how far a paragraph is indented from the right edge of a box or column,
enter a value in the Right Indent field. Click OK.
• To create a hanging indentation, specify a positive Left Indent and a negative First
Line indentation or drag the indentation icons on the column ruler. In Windows,
you can use the Apply button in the Formats tab of the Paragraph Attributes dialog
box (Style > Formats) to experiment with the hanging indentation.
In addition to setting hanging indents as a paragraph attribute, you can enter a special
character that forces the indenting of all lines of text from that point to the next
paragraph return. Press Command+\ (Mac OS X) or Ctrl+\ (Windows) to enter a special
Indent Here character. (The Indent Here character is an invisible character; to view
invisible characters, choose View > Invisibles (Command+I/Ctrl+I.)
