When writing a document in SW...

If the document is created in landscape mode, I think paragraph breaks
could be done much like it is with horizontal writing ... just insert a
little extra space horizontally. Another possibility we could borrow
from English writing is the use of indentation to represent paragraph
breaks.
Another thought that occurred to me is using something like a short
thin line drawn vertically by itself to the left upper corner of the
beginning of the paragraph. That could visually indicate a start of
paragraph. If it is always written flush with the top margin, that
could be sufficient to mark the paragraph. Maybe Valerie has something
else.
Just my brainstorms.
