Style of Bussines Letter


                       Indented Style


Basically, writing in indented style means indenting new paragraphs in a piece of writing, and, in a business letter, beginning the return address, date, complimentary close, and signature slightly to the right of the center of the page. Consistency, as usual, is the most important thing to consider when using indented style. When writing a business letter in indented style, there are other parts to consider. In addition to indenting paragraphs, you will also indent:
The return address,  date,   complimentary close, and the signature. These parts should begin on the right half of the page. They should not be right justified, but stay in one vertical  line starting slightly to the right of the center of the page. http://www.icosmos.com.tw/templates/images/files/9789861845586.pdf
