To display the Paragraph dialog box, choose Paragraph from the Format menu.

Tip You can use preset paragraph styles supplied by AppleWorks, or
paragraph styles you create, to change a paragraph’s formatting in one step.
For example, you can apply a style to format paragraphs with hanging
indents and bullets in the margin. To show the stylesheet, click

on the

Default button bar (or choose Show Stylesheet from the Window menu). Then
select the paragraphs to format and click Bullet. (To format a single paragraph,
click anywhere in that paragraph and click Bullet.) For information on
applying styles or creating your own, see onscreen Help and “Using styles”
on page 9-5.
