Google Docs Tip: Hanging Indents

3/23/2020

Visible Ruler
Make sure the Google Docs ruler is visible.

Click “View” and make sure “Show Ruler” is checked. If it isn’t, click on it, and the ruler will appear beneath the menu bar.

First Line Indent and Left Indent
On the ruler, there is a light blue rectangle at the left margin, which represents the location of the First Line Indent. Beneath the light blue rectangle is a light blue inverted triangle, which represents the location of the Left Indent.

On the ruler, hover the cursor over each shape, and its function will be displayed.

Create the Hanging Indent

First: Select the text you want indented. You can select a single paragraph or multiple paragraphs at a time.
Next: On the ruler, drag the Left Indent (light blue inverted triangle) to the right as far as you want the text to be indented. As you will notice, the First Line Indent marker (light blue rectangle) will come along for the ride, and all your selected text will move to the right.

Finally: Drag the First Line Indent marker (light blue rectangle) back to the left margin. It will move independently, and your hanging indent will be created.

1. With a document open on your Mac, choose File > Print, or press Command-P.

The Print dialog opens, with a small preview of how your document will look when printed. Click the arrows below the preview to scroll through the pages.

2. Choose any of the following common print settings (you may need to click Show Details to see some of the settings):

Printer: Choose the printer you want to use. Do not send black and white prints to the color printer. You may need to click See more... under Destinations and look for the printers you need.
- For Color: LIB-HP-651
- For Black & White: LIB-HP-1 or LIB-HP-2
Copies: Specify the number of copies you want.
Two-Sided: Select this to print on both sides of the paper. If you do not want your paper to be two-sided make sure this is NOT selected. If you are printing a brochure make sure it is set to flip on short-edge.
Pages: Choose to print all pages, a single page, or a range of pages.
Orientation: Click the buttons to switch between portrait or landscape orientation.

3. Once the settings are how you want them then click Print.

4. You can pick up your printed documents at the circulation desk.
Color printing is $0.50 per page.
You get two Black & White pages for free per day. After that it's $0.10 per page.
