Zoho Writer comes with a set of advanced tools for more than just editing or formatting. These tools allow you to convert text to a table, bookmark pages, embed presentations and videos, navigate through your document and much more.
You can increase/decrease the left indent of lines and paragraphs to structure your content better.
To increase/decrease left indent:
When you quote or copy a paragraph or more from elsewhere and you want it to appear distinctly at the middle of the page, you can rightly place the copied content by adjusting the left and right indents.
Setting left/right using Ruler
Indentation can be set by adjusting the Indent icon on the horizontal ruler on the top.
Setting indents for paragraph using Ruler
You can also set indentation for certain paragraph using horizontal ruler on the top. All you have to do is to Select the paragraph and drag left/right indent icons to your preference.
First line intentation is when only first line of a paragraph is indented; hanging indentation is when all lines EXCEPT the first line are indented.
To apply first line/hanging indentation:
Indentation can also be adjusted by adjusting First line indent icon on the horizontal ruler on the top.
If you feel that the content in your document appears too crammed to be read easily or too loose to make connections you can correct the line spacing for better readability.
You can keep paragraphs closer or distant as you want.
You can prevent paragraphs from splitting across pages unevenly by using the line and page break options available in Zoho Writer. Once you enable these options, you'll be able to avoid dangling lines at the top and bottom of a page.
To modify line and page break settings:
Enable Widow/Orphan - Adjusts the position of the paragraph to prevent a single line of text from being left at the top or bottom of a page.
Keep Lines Together - Keeps the entire paragraph as one unit on a single page. When this option is enabled, if the whole paragraph won’t fit at the bottom of one page, it is moved to the next page.
Page Break Before - Inserts a page break before the paragraph. You can turn on this setting by pressing Ctrl+Enter (Windows) or Cmd+Enter (Apple) and click Apply.
A tab stop is the point where the cursor halts when the tab key is pressed. Tab stops help you align text towards the left, right and the center. It lets you set text at equal distances when you do not want to use a table to separate text.
To set tab stops:
Using default tab options
Writer's horizontal ruler displays left as your tab point by default. However, you can change this to center, right or even other indentation options.
To view these options, click on Tab icon on the top-left corner of the ruler.
