Setting and changing tabs
Use tabs when you create tables or need to control how text aligns (lines up)
in a document. The text ruler has preset left tabs every one-half inch. (Preset
tabs do not appear on the ruler.) You can move the tabs to different locations,
remove tabs, add tabs, and use different tab alignments. When you set tabs,
any preset tabs to the right of the tabs you set remain effective.
To set tabs, select all the paragraphs you want to change. Then, click the type
of tab marker you want and then click a position on the text ruler.
To remove a tab, drag the tab marker up and off the ruler.
Indenting paragraphs
To change the indentation for a paragraph, position the insertion point in the
paragraph and drag the first-line indent marker , left margin marker , or
right margin marker
to a new position on the text ruler.
