In Document Editor, you can change tab stops i.e. the position the cursor advances to when you press the Tab key on the keyboard.
To set tab stops you can use the horizontal ruler:
- Select the necessary tab stop type clicking the
button in the upper left corner of the working area. The following three tab types are available:
- Left - 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
marker. - Center
- centers the text at the tab stop position. Such a tab stop will be indicated on the horizontal ruler by the 
marker. - Right
- 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 
marker.

- 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.
You can also use the paragraph properties window to adjust tab stops. Click the right mouse button, select the Paragraph Advanced Settings option in the menu or use the Show advanced settings link at the right sidebar, and switch to the Tab tab in the opened Paragraph - Advanced Settings window.
