About Indent To Here

You can use the Indent to Here special character to indent lines in a paragraph independently of a paragraph’s left

indent value. The Indent to Here special character is different from the paragraph’s left indent in the following ways:

• Indent to Here is part of the text flow, as if it were a visible character. If text reflows, the indent moves with it.

• Indent to Here affects all lines after the line where you’ve added its special character, so you can indent just some

of the lines in a paragraph.

• When you choose Type > Show Hidden Characters, the Indent to Here character is visible.

Note: If you insert more than one Indent to Here special character on a line, InCopy uses the one farthest to the right.

Setting tabs

Tabs

Tabs position text at specific horizontal locations in a frame. The default tab settings depend on the unit of

measurement selected in the Units & Increments section of the Preferences dialog box.

Tabs apply to an entire paragraph. The first tab you set deletes all default tab stops to its left. Subsequent tabs delete

all default tabs between the tabs you set. You can set left, center, right, and decimal or special-character tabs.
