Specifying paragraph indentationIndentation specifies the amount of space between the ends of each line of type and the path that contains that type.

Note: The First line left indent and the Left indent on the Paragraph palette also appear on the Tab Ruler palette as small triangles. (See Using the Tab Ruler palette.)

Indentation affects only the selected paragraph or paragraphs, so you can easily set different indentations for paragraphs. To specify paragraph indentation:
To create a first line hanging indentation, type a negative value in the First line left indent text box. |
