Welcome back to module 4 where we’re going through and talking about all the different options as far as formatting your paragraphs. This is section 3 where I want to talk to you a little bit about working with indents.

There are going to be times when you want to indent the left side of a paragraph. Normally you’d hit the Tab key to do that but notice that that will actually only indent the first line and only indents it at the half inch mark. You’re going to want to indent the whole thing or maybe you want to indent both sides. So let me show you how the indents work.

Normally if you were in a paragraph and you wanted to indent the first line you would just hit the Tab key on your keyboard. That’s certainly okay to do. Tab stops at every half inch on the ruler. So if you look at your ruler you’ve got this top indent here called a First line indent and you’ve indented the first line at the half inch mark.

That’s not going to help very much if you wanted to indent this line at ¾ of an inch or it’s not going to help you if you wanted to indent the whole left side of that paragraph. So that’s where the indents are going to come into play. Here’s how they work.

The top one, the arrow that points down is called a first line indent. It will indent the first line of every paragraph you have selected. So let me show you how that works. I’m going to select these top two paragraphs and I’m just going to pull this over to ¾ of an inch like this and now both paragraphs the first line only is indented at ¾ of an inch. Alright let me undo that one.

The next one I want to show you is the arrow that points up right here. That’s called a Hanging Indent. That means that the first line is going to stay and everything else is going to be indented. So I’m going to grab that one. Notice I’m not going to grab the square on the bottom because the square on the bottom will move them both.

But see how the first line stayed and everything else is indented now? Can you think of a good example of a hanging indent? How about numbers? I don’t know if you noticed but when we typed in numbers that created a hanging indent. Let me show you that real quick.
