In the example below, we’ve applied a distributed indent to the cell borders in column B, using four spaces, to allow for equal padding between the cell text and the left and right cell borders. The additional padding between your text and cell borders will be applied to your selected cell range. Once you’re ready, click the “OK” button to save any changes. Click the up and down arrows or type a number in the box. In the “Indent” box, select the size of your additional spacing.
