I think I've managed to do this. Here are the steps I went through; you may of course be set to inches rather then centimetres.
Select everything in the document with Cmd-A. VO-left arrow to the ruler and interact with it. VO-right arrow to "0.00 centimetres head indent ruler marker" and interact with it. VO-right arrow to change it by 0.1 centimetres, or VO-Shift-right arrow to change it by 0.01 centimetres. When I've got that where I want it, stop interacting with it. VO-left arrow to "0.00 centimetres first line indent ruler marker". Change that to the same distance as the first ruler marker. VO-right arrow past all the "left tab stops" to "31.75 centimetres tail indent ruler marker". Interact with it and move it to the left. Does that work for you? And do what you want? I don't know how to set this as the default. Steve On 29 Nov 2010, at 22:23, Tom Frank wrote: > Hi there, > I've tried, and so has my sighted wife but with no success.
