How do I change an individual line margin in Word 2007?

[Guest]

I am use to using the margin changing lines at the top of the Word 2003
screen to individually adjust a margin for a line. Wiggling the text a
small amount to the right or left.
I have a line if it had room for one more character I could fit all the
words I want on the line in it. But, I can not figure out how to adjust the
margin for just that one line in Word 2007. Word 2003, I there is a ruler
line bar at the top of the screen I could adjust the one line to be a little
bit wider. Is there such an option in Word 2007??
Thanks Russ - www.techexpressinc.com

You can drag the indent indicators in Word 2007 too. To display the ruler,
click "Ruler" on the View tab of the ribbon (the command is found in the
Show/Hide group).

Alternatively, type the desired negative right (or left) indent in the
Paragraph group of the Page Layout ribbon. Or click the dialog box launcher
to display the Paragraph dialog box; it shows you all of the available
options.

Clarification: Of course, indentation is not for individual lines, but for
whole paragraphs.

And there are other ways to fit copy (see
http://word.mvps.org/FAQs/Formatting/FitCopy.htm). One of the first buttons
I'll probably add to the QAT is the one I use to condense the font by 0.1
point. <g>
