Paragraph formatting helps you keep text clean and organized in the Creative Studio. This article covers:

Paragraph alignment

To change paragraph alignment:

  1. Click the text frame to activate the Text editing toolbar on the left.

  2. Apply one of these alignment types:

  • Align left: aligns the text along the left side of the textbox.

  • Align center: centers the text, leaving an even gap on each side of the line.

  • Align right: aligns the text along the right side of the textbox.

  • Justify with last line aligned left: straight edges on both sides, with the last line aligned left.

  • Justify with last line aligned right: straight edges on both sides, with the last line aligned right.

  • Justify with last line aligned center: straight edges on both sides, with the last line centered.

  • Justify all lines: justifies every line in the paragraph, including the last.

Indenting

  • Increase Indent: increases the left margin.

  • Decrease Indent: reverses Increase Indent, so it's only available if Increase Indent was already applied.

  • First line left Indent: indents the first line of a paragraph more than the other lines.

  • Left Indent: indents the paragraph on the left by the amount you choose.

  • Right Indent: indents the paragraph on the right by the amount you choose.

Indenting

Paragraph spacing

Click the up or down arrows to adjust the distance before or after the paragraph. You can also type a number directly.

Bulleted and numbered lists

  • Bulleted list: creates a series of items marked with dotted points.

  • Numbered list: displays a sequence of items vertically and numbers them consecutively.
