@Mikeykiss You can use ParagraphFormat.FirstLineIndent to set these kind of indents. Use positive values to set the first-line indent, and negative values to set the hanging indent.

@Mikeykiss Aspose.Words uses Points as the default measurement units. Most likely, in your case, MS Word is configured to use Centimeters. You can use ConvertUtil.millimeterToPoint to convert centimeters to points. Please see our documentation for more information:

Thank you. This method is useful. Please tell me what value the HTML text independent tag is set to. When converting to word, can it be converted to an indented value of 2 characters

@Mikeykiss Unfortunately, there is no way to specify paragraph first line indent in characters in HTML format.
