CSS Text Indent Property
CSS Text Indent is a property which is used to define how the first line of the HTML Text Elements contains have space from the left corner.
You can define text-indent property by apply in values in percentage, in pixels, in em and many more.
Example 1 – CSS Indent Property application to shift text from left.
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <style> div.a { text-indent: 60px; text-align:justify; } div.b { text-indent: 3em; text-align:justify; } div.c { text-indent: 50%; text-align:justify; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Text Indent Example</h1> <div class="a"> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</p> </div> <div class="b"> <p>Lorem ipsum aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.</p> </div> <div class="c"> <p>Lorem ipsum aliquam etiam erat velit scelerisque in dictum non. Tincidunt ornare massa eget egestas purus. Lacus luctus accumsan tortor posuere ac ut.</p> </div> </body> </html>
In the above code, we define the text-indent property how it work and how the textr will show.
Note:You can specify negative values to the text-indent CSS Properties. If you specify negative value to the text-indent property than the first line is started from the more left side than the normal body of the left.

Another example of a text-indent property which is specified in the negative value.
Example 2 – Property application and code example to shift text to the left from base position
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <style> div.a { text-indent: -10px; text-align:justify; } div.b { text-indent: -2em; text-align:justify; } div.c { text-indent: -15%; text-align:justify; } </style> </head> <body> <h1>Text Indent Example</h1> <div class="a"> <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.</p> </div> <div class="b"> <p>Lorem ipsum aute irure dolor in reprehenderit in voluptate velit esse cillum dolore eu fugiat nulla pariatur.</p> </div> <div class="c"> <p>Lorem ipsum aliquam etiam erat velit scelerisque in dictum non. Tincidunt ornare massa eget egestas purus. Lacus luctus accumsan tortor posuere ac ut.</p> </div> </body> </html>
In the above code, we define the text-indent property but the values are negative so you have to check in below screenshot that how the HTML Element will be shown.
