You could do that either by turning off the document body here or going to File, and then Convert to Page Layout. You can have the indent set on a per paragraph level. So while the indent starts at the margins it doesn't have to stay there. You could see here how I could actually just drag the indent here. There's also the First Line Indent which is separate from the left side of all the rest of the line. So if I have my cursor in this paragraph I could change the left indent there. You could see that just changes it for the current paragraph. If I wanted to just change the indent then I could do so by going to Format, and then Layout, and here are the Indents. If I were to change the document margins, let's change the left side, you can see all the text changes. Indents, which are shown here in the Ruler are where the text actually flows to.
This is the inside near the binding for the book. So if I go to pages 2 and 3 here by changing the inside margin you can see how it changes the right margin on page 2 and the left margin on page 1. The the document margins change to have top and bottom like before but now Inside and Outside margins. So you can see how everything after page 1 are two facing pages. I can insert a page break and you can see page 2, another page break, page 3. You can see here page 1 will be by itself. If I turn Off Facing Pages then things change quite a bit. That's when you have like a book or a magazine or a newsletter and you're going to have page one be the front cover, page 2 and 3 face each other, and then even and odd pages facing each other from that point on. Now we do have the ability to turn on Facing Pages. The same thing with the bottom, the left, and the right. So if I were to take the top margin and, say, decrease it a bit you can see it change there. The body text is going to be this text field that flows from one page to the next and it fits perfectly in the margins. This will show us here a box which is the Body Text. If we want to see the top and bottom margins as well we can use View and then Show Layout. I'll talk more about indents in a minute. You can see here the left and right margins are indicated here on the ruler. I'm going to zoom out a little bit to 75%. This will show the ruler here at the top of the page. The first way is to go to View and let's Show Ruler. Now if you actually want to see the margins on the page we can.
You can see here they are set to one inch all the way around, top, bottom, left, right. Then in the document area of the Sidebar you can find Document Margins. First to actually see what the margins are set to you want to go to the Sidebar here. Let's say we want to setup specific margins. Let's start with a word processing document.
