See also the firstIndent field property in the Rev dictionary:


   Use the firstIndent property to created indented paragraphs.

   Value:
   The firstIndent of a field is an integer.

   By default, the firstIndent property of newly created fields
   is set to zero.

   Comments:
   The first line of each paragraph is left-indented the specified
   number of pixels. If the firstIndent is zero, the field's
   paragraphs are not indented. If the firstIndent is negative,
   the first line of each paragraph is outdented the specified
   number of pixels, creating a hanging indent. (It may be
   necessary to increase the field's leftMargin property to
   accommodate the hanging indent.)
