Why is the indentation wrong on follow-on paragraphs?

0

The program can’t distinguish between indented paragraphs and paragraphs that are intended as follow-on paragraphs from some bullet point or list item. This means that whilst the first paragraph (the one with the bullet point) is indented as a result of being placed inside appropriate list markup, the second and subsequent paragraphs are just treated as indented text. The bullet point will be indented as one level deeper than the text position of the bullet. The follow-on paragraph will be indented according to it’s own indentation position compared to the prevailing documentation pattern. Ideally this will be one level deeper than the text position of the bullet. Occasionally the two result in different indentations. The solutions are either to Review your indent position(s) policy with a view to adjusting the values to give the right amount of indentation to the follow-on paragraphs.
