1. Adjusting the Tab size

2. 1) Check the Margins A basic rule (the one we follow in this class):
The indentation is half the size of the margin.
Our Margins are 1 inch (2.54 cm)
So the tab (indentation) will be ½ inch (1.27 cm)

3. 1) Check the Margins
Click the ‘layout’ tab
Click ‘margins’

5. 1) Check the Margins These should all say 2.54 cm.
If they don’t, then you must click ‘custom Margins’ at the bottom.

6. 1) Check the Margins The custom margin window:
You can click ‘Set as Default’ which should mean that you don’t have to do this every time.

7. 2) Adjust the Tab Size for Indentation
Click this little arrow
The ‘Paragraph’ window will open.
Click ‘Tabs’

8. 2) Adjust the Tab Size for Indentation
Start with ‘clear all’
Set this to 1.27 cm
Make sure this is set to ‘left’
Click ‘set’
Click ‘OK’
