Use styles for all your paragraphs, or at least use the Word block quote style for the quotes you want to appear according to MLA. Be sure to check the style definition to make sure it does correspond to MLA requirements as far as marjins (including right marjin) and line spacing. Also make sure it's in the font size and type you want.

Hey all, I'll first start by saying that this is more important than ever now that it contributed to my less than satisfactory grade I received on an English paper. I am working on MLA style in English, and one of the requirements for it for those who use a different style for citing things, is that during block quotes, each line, and not just the first one, must be double indented. I cannot seem to find an automatic way to do that with the feedback that WE provides. My professor uses the ruler at the top of the Word 2010 document area to place them. I find it highly innoficient to simply drill down each line and place the tabs manually, that's for sure. Is there a way to access the ruler with WE? Or is there a formatting ribbon option that will allow this to occur on selected portions of a document? Thanks a lot, guys.
