After 3 lines, give "/" in one line. It will feed a new line into script output.

For space between lines, do this. Example u are printing the following text and u want space after 3 lines :

/ &ITCFX-SCTITLE& &ITCFX-SCLNAME&

/ <K>Phone < / >

/ &ITCFX-SCPHONENR1&

/ &ITCFX-SCTITLE& &ITCFX-SCLNAME&

/ <K>Phone< / >

/ &ITCFX-SCPHONENR1&

Hope u got my point. Line feed '/' with a blank line will result in 1 blank line in the output.

Now to use paragraph formats:

1. Click on paragraph format button.

2. In menu - Edit -> Create element -> give a name to ur para format and a description.

3. Click the tab button on the bottom right side of the page.

4. Here u can enter values to set the tabs. For example, if first value u set is 2 and next 4, then 6 and so on. So in the script when u use ur para format. Double comma between words would mean 2 spaces.

Remember the space which u give between ur words by putting double comma - ,, considers the value which u have entered in ur para format.

Example :

P1 - I created para format P1 with spaces 2, 5, 9, 15. and i use it in my editor as:

P1 <W>Phone < / > ,, <W>Name < / > ,, <W>Grade < / > ,, <W>Marks < / >

These words will be printed at 2nd, 5th, 9th and 15th cursor positions from left in the output.

I may be wrong in the accuracy of position. U'll have to play with it, and find out how double comma, 4 commas are behaving for ur script.

To have more clarity on this u can go through the following :
