Paragraph indentation

You can set the left margin of a specific paragraph (its “indentation”) as follows:

1. Select the relevant paragraph.

2. Click the “Increase Indent” button in the mini toolbar (you can find this button on the ribbon too).

3. Repeatedly clicking this button will increase the indentation more.

4. You can decrease the indentation by clicking the complementary “Decrease Indent” button next to it.

You can set the indentation to a specific value, by opening the Paragraph Dialog box, and setting a value inside the “Before text” field. (The Paragraph Dialog box can be opened by clicking the small arrow in the lower right corner of the “Paragraph” group in the ribbon, when the “Home” tab is selected).
