Selecting paragraphs with different formatting

window and the Paragraph palette display the line wrap and indent, line height and paragraph
spacing of the first selected paragraph. Other formats that are common to all selected paragraphs,
such as Tab Indicators, also display.
If you change format attributes to selected paragraphs with different rulers the new attributes affect
all the selected text.
Set the same format for a group of differing paragraphs
1. Select the paragraphs
2. Change the format by modifying the ruler.
If the indentation differs for selected paragraphs, the Ruler at the top of the document window and
Paragraph palette reflect the settings of the first selected paragraph. Changing an indent affects all
selected paragraphs.

The head and tail text wrap indicators determine the physical length of your line on the page. These
markers determine where the lines of your paragraphs will “wrap.” Drag these indicators along the
Ruler to change their settings.
