[stylist] lines on a page

[Bridgit Pollpeter]

And as an editor, people, stop tabbing, aaaahhh! No more submissions
with tabs especially when inconsistent. Okay, rant over, grin.

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
