Hanging indents are often used to create table-like effects.


  1. At the bottom of the document, select the three paragraphs containing dollar
    amounts. Where the horizontal and vertical rulers meet, click the Tab button until
    the Decimal Tab button is displayed and then click the ruler at the 3 mark.

  2. Insert a tab to the left of each dollar amount.


Word aligns the three paragraphs on the decimals.


  1. Select the first paragraph containing tabs (Pillows), hold down the Ctrl key, and
    then select the paragraphs that begin with the following:
    Blankets
    Towels
    Limousine winery tour
    In-home massage

  2. On the Home tab, in the Paragraph group, click the Line Spacing button, and
    click Remove Space After Paragraph. Then press the Home key.
    Now only the last paragraphs of the two lists have extra space after them.


Removing internal space from lists makes them easier to read.
