Summary

In this chapter, we’ve explored the ins and outs of direct paragraph formatting. You should have also learned that anything you can do to a paragraph, you can enshrine in a style. You should now be able to do the following:

  • Decide when to use direct formatting, and when to use a style
  • Distinguish between paragraph formatting attributes and other kinds of attributes
  • Properly indent and align any paragraph, as well as determine how to find and use the appropriate tools
  • Apply and remove bullets and numbering
  • Use shading and boxes to highlight paragraphs
  • Explain at the next cocktail party what those strange square dots are at the left side of certain paragraphs
  • Decide when to use tabs versus when to use a table
