First of all, make sure that rulers are visible. In the Document Editor, rulers are displayed by default. If they have been earlier hidden, display them again in the following way:
- Go to the View tab.
- Click the Rulers option to show or hide rulers.
On the left side of the horizontal ruler, you can see three markers that are used to adjust paragraph indents from the left margin of the page.
- The upper one is the First Line Indent Marker that allows to set the offset from the left margin for the first line of the paragraph.
- The lower triangular marker is the Hanging Indent Marker that we must use to make a hanging indentation.
- The lower rectangular marker is the Left Indent Marker that is used to move all the markers at once and allows to set the entire paragraph offset from the left margin of the page.
Click the triangular Hanging Indent Marker and drag it to the right until the necessary offset is reached.
If you accidentally move the Left Indent Marker instead, just drag the First Line Indent Marker back to the left margin.
That's all, you have made a hanging indent in your document in just a few clicks.
