Tips for formatting your APA Style paper Margins: Add 1 inch margins on all sides. Header: Starting with your title page, add page numbers at the top right corner of the page. Line Spacing: Double-space your text. Paragraph Alignment Indentation: Indent the first line of each paragraph by 0.5 inch.
There are five levels of heading in APA Style. Level 1 is the highest or main level of heading, Level 2 is a subheading of Level 1, Level 3 is a subheading of Level 2, and so on through Levels 4 and 5. The number of headings to use in a paper depends on the length and complexity of the work.
Basic Number Rule For more detailed information on numbers, please see pages 178-181 in the APA 7th edition manual. When using numbers in APA, keep these two basic rules in mind. Use words instead of numerals when expressing numbers one through nine. Use numerals for numbers 10 and up.
General APA Format Guidelines Type on standard-size (8.5-inch by 11-inch) paper. Have a 1-inch margin on all sides. Have a title page. Use an easy-to-read font such as Calibri or Times New Roman. Double-space the whole paper. Align text to the left-hand side. Indent the first line of each paragraph by 0.5 inches.
Your APA paper should include five major sections: the Title Page, Abstract, Main Paper, Paper Format and References And Citations.
