The text-indent CSS property sets the length of empty space (indentation) that is put before lines of text in a block container. The indentation set by the property occurs at the inline-start edge of the content box. The value is a length-percentage, optionally with one or both of the keywords each-line and/or hanging. The initial value is 0.

Percent values are relative to the block container’s inline-axis inner size, which is the dimension of the content-area only, excluding the container’s padding and border.

Syntax example: text-indent: 3mm;
