Mirror Indents In the paragraph formatting dialog box, there exists an option box for Mirror indents. You tick in and new items appear. BTW in OE should I use Reply Group? Because if I choose Reply, it asks for POP/SMTP servers. Hence this new post with your name for subject

In response to the OE question, yes, use Reply Group.

Okay, this is new in Word 2007; as grammatim explains, it is used to indent a paragraph on the inside or outside of facing pages. This was a fairly common request in the past; it's similar to mirror margins for duplex documents. It does *not* refer to indenting from both sides (like a block quote).

How do you mean? It provides a place to set the inner and outer margins of a paragraph separately from the page (for pull quotes and such, I suppose).

I mean that users are often looking for a single command (similar to the one in WordPerfect) that will indent a paragraph equally from both sides (comparable to Ctrl+M to indent from the left or Ctrl+T to apply a hanging indent. There is no such command; instead you can apply the Block Text style (presumably as modified, since a 1" indent is insane in most cases).
But the "mirror indent" doesn't even imply that there *is* an indent from both sides of the paragraph, just that whatever indent is set for Inside or Outside will swap sides on alternate (facing) pages, so that you could have a left indent on the verso pages and a right indent on the recto pages (Outside), while maintaining the same margin on the Inside.
