Select some more "lorem ipsum" from the body copy and paste it in the box. Format the type using 12 point Helvetica with 12 points of leading (you can copy and paste text attributes as in steps 80 and 81). To make the lead-ins stand out, select them and click the bold type style button. The following steps describe how to make the indents.

102. Click Layout > Display > Show Text Invisibles to reveal the carriage returns and line feeds (hard and soft returns). Note that the text is in one continuous block. It is all done using 12 points of leading. With careful formatting, you need not create separate text boxes for each paragraph and lead-in. Select the paragraph below the lead-in for the indent.
