Definition

You use a paragraph format to lay out the paragraphs of the text entered in the editor.

Use

In the SAPscript editors, you can assign a paragraph format to each paragraph.

However, you define the attributes of the paragraph formats in the form and style. After the definition, you can assign the corresponding form or style to a standard text. If you do not choose a form or style explicitly, the SAP system assigns the default form SYSTEM. More information: BC - Style and Form Maintenance.

Structure

The paragraph format determines:

  • The font, font size, and the font style

  • The outline attributes of the paragraphs

  • The tabs within the paragraph

Integration

If you only want to format a character string rather than an entire paragraph, use the appropriate character format.
