<p>In Document Editor, you can change tab stops i.e. the position the cursor advances to when you press the <b>Tab</b> key on the keyboard.</p>
<p>To set tab stops you can use the horizontal ruler:</p>
<ol>
<li>Select the necessary tab stop type clicking the <imgalt="Left Tab Stop button"src="../images/tabstopleft.png"/> button in the upper left corner of the working area. The following three tab types are available:
<ul>
<li><b>Left</b><imgalt="Left Tab Stop button"src="../images/tabstopleft.png"/> - lines up your text by the left side at the tab stop position; the text moves to the right from the tab stop as you type. Such a tab stop will be indicated on the horizontal ruler by the <imgalt="Left Tab Stop marker"src="../images/tabstopleft_marker.png"/> marker.</li>
<li><b>Center</b><imgalt="Center Tab Stop button"src="../images/tabstopcenter.png"/> - centers the text at the tab stop position. Such a tab stop will be indicated on the horizontal ruler by the <imgalt="Center Tab Stop marker"src="../images/tabstopcenter_marker.png"/> marker.</li>
<li><b>Right</b><imgalt="Right Tab Stop button"src="../images/tabstopright.png"/> - lines up your text by the right side at the tab stop position; the text moves to the left from the tab stop as you type. Such a tab stop will be indicated on the horizontal ruler by the <imgalt="Right Tab Stop marker"src="../images/tabstopright_marker.png"/> marker.</li>
</ul>
</li>
<li>Click on the bottom edge of the ruler where you want to place the tab stop. Drag it along the ruler to change its position. To remove the added tab stop drag it out of the ruler.

<li><b>Tab Position</b> - is used to set custom tab stops. Enter the necessary value in this box, adjust it more precisely using the arrow buttons and press the <b>Specify</b> button. Your custom tab position will be added to the list in the field below. If you've previously added some tab stops using the ruler, all these tab positions will also be displayed in the list.</li>
<li><b>Default Tab</b> is set at 1.25 cm. You can decrease or increase this value using the arrow buttons or enter the necessary one in the box.</li>
<li><b>Alignment</b> - is used to set the necessary alignment type for each of the tab positions in the list above. Select the necessary tab position in the list, choose the <b>Left</b>, <b>Center</b> or <b>Right</b> option from the drop-down list and press the <b>Specify</b> button.</li>
