Sometimes is just more suitable to go in the wrong way then try turn back to right. So if you are not so principal, can you post the example of macro, which change paragraph values to "indentation" "special" first line "by" 1.25 cm? I think i could use it not only in the case of deleting unprintable characters, but for fast switching to the different spaces too. I use the "compatibility mode". Maybe that's the problem
