If all the paragraphs are in Normal
style (ack!), you can change the formatting of the style.
But don't forget that this affects (or can affect) many other styles that
are, by default, based on the Normal style.

I have finished my text and I found out that I have to indent the
first
line
of every paragraph. It seems that if it is a new document and I am
typing
a
new paragraph, I can still set the parameters of the indentation. But
now
that the text is finished, it's hard to do it. Do you have an idea how
to
do
this?
