Indentation

                 Indent is the space (gap) of text (a line or paragraph) from the edge/margin. The margin settings are
                 applied to the whole document or the text area but indentation sets the space of a paragraph from the
                 margin with respect to the rest of text that is below or above it. The indentation can be applied in four
                 sides with different options:
                 Before Text: This option indents text from the left margin.

                 After Text: This option indents text from the right margin.

                 First Line: This option indents the first line of a paragraph from the left margin.

                 Hanging: This option indents all the lines except the first line from the left margin.
