Paragraph settings provide substantial control over the look of paragraphs, from line spacing to special borders and indents.
Note: All settings are entered in inches, even if the selected page format is a European measurement. This is a function of the word processing tool that we cannot modify at this time.
Modifying Paragraph Settings
| 1 | Choose File > Workspace > Documents |
| 2 | Open the document you want to work with. |
| 3 | Place the cursor in the paragraph you want to modify, then choose Actions > Format > Paragraph. |
| 4 | The Paragraph settings window includes two pages of settings: |
| • | Formatting and Indents - enables you to control alignment, line spacing, indents, and automatic distance before and after the paragraph. (Using the before and after distance for a paragraph eliminates the need to key a blank line between paragraphs and makes for a much more professional document.) |
| • | Frame and Page Breaks - enables you to surround a paragraph with a border one one or more sides, and control pagination effects (you can force a page break before the paragraph, prevent the paragraph from breaking across pages, etc.). The Widow/Orphan control option lets you specify the minimum number of lines that can be left on a page. |
