Format/Indent Essays?

<p>I noticed the pdf generated from the Princeton supplement removes the tabs in my essays. Does that mean Princeton doesn't want any indentation/formatting? Should I at least put a blank line between paragraphs? Sorry if this has been asked before, thanks for any advice!</p>

<p>whatever you see in your PDF print preview is what Princeton will see</p>

<p>right, but do you know what they want to see? for example, do they want any separation between paragraphs (such as blank lines)?</p>

<p>Have you tried uploading your essay as a pdf file? (converting it from doc to pdf before you upload, rather than letting Pton generate the pdf).</p>

<p>I have no idea whether they want indentations or not. However, if you don’t use indents, I would definitely use a blank line between paragraphs. You need something to separate paragraphs, and a blank line is customary block format.</p>

<p>the tabs in my PDF print preview have not been removed. i agree with luminouzz - just convert to PDF and then upload and DEFINITELY separate paragraphs.</p>

<p>You don’t need to put a line between paragraphs if you indent.</p>

<p>Either indent, or put a line between paragraphs. But don’t do both.</p>

<p>Does it matter if it’s double or single spaced?</p>

<p>single space for princeton</p>

<p>You guys worry about silly things.</p>

<p>^Princeton does ask directly for single spaced essays though.</p>

<p>I did both (single spaced, with line between paragraph with indents). I thought it looked good.</p>
