Hi There,

Using \@startsection to redefine the format of the titles for section and subsection. But how would I change the left margin of all of the paragraphs which follow a section command? Not the left indent of the title to a section and subsection (like one could do with the titlesec package) but the indent after the section command.

Thanks!
John

This is called "legal indentation" because it is common in legal documents.
