| | Every line in a particular paragraph has the same tab stops in the same location | |
| | When inserting tabs ensure that every line that will contain a tab stop is a single paragraph and that every paragraph with a tab stop contains just one line. | |
| | Every paragraph has its default set to tabs every half inch. As you add tab stops manually the preceding default stops disappear | |
