[stylist] lines on a page

[Applebutter Hill]

Jim,
You make an excellent point about tabbing being the wrong thing to do. If
people want to self-publish through Smashwords, for instance, you won't get
approved for their free advanced distribution option if you have tabs or
hidden bookmarks in your book. It's best to get over using that and into the
habit of using Styles.  I never used tabs, just set up each document with
the paragraph and font dialogs. I wish I had started learning Styles before
I was already in the publishing process. *grin*

Hi Atty,
If you want to change the Normal style so that it indents the first line of
every paragraph, which is the correct way to do things, that is possible.
You can also make your own style that has indent for the first line. I just
checked my Normal style, though, and it already indents the first line by 48
pixels. I don't know that the translation is in inches. Tell me what Word
version you have, and I'll get you instructions. The wrong thing to do is to
press TAB to indent.

Jim

Hi folks,

How do I check how many lines in a page and how far down the page I am with
word 2007?

How do I get word 2007 to indent the first line on my paragraphs?

How can I check how many lines between paragraphs?

Thanks!
Atty
