To go back into Pages and have to change every single para to 1.2cm would be just too tedious. I just spent 4 hours doing that with all the para indents which were not uniform (at 3 clicks of the space bar each) - all because I am on a learning curve with Styles having done a tutorial with lynda.com and only discovering styles after beginning the book and investing all the time formatting it.

You cannot imagine how out of my depth I am ....

Just to confirm you are seeing:

BTW using spacebar for indents is so Typewriter

add to the paragraph style: text-indent: 1.5em;

(em scale with zoom)
