Thanks for responding.
More details: So, I'm old school, and when I was writing, sometimes I was hitting tab for new paragraph and sometimes just hitting 5 spaces. ( I don't know why I did this. In my mind, I was just thinking, type, get it on the page, fix later). Then there was the case of lots of editing where I was cutting and pasting from different drafts. It seems as if the problem lies mostly with my dialogue, although yeah, it's still there with some paragraphs.
Google search showed me that I needed to set the first line at .5 and not keep hitting tab or space bar. However, now that its 277 pages I was trying to go back to fix. Did try to select all and fix, but for some reason there are numerous pesky outliers that are indented 2x...
thanks for trying, I'm just going to go through and manually fix, as part of an editing pass through.
