With Spire.Doc, we can set the formats for paragraph in C#. This article will focus on demonstrate how to set the spacing before and after the paragraph in C#.
Set the spacing before and after the paragraph for a newly added paragraph added by the method of paragraph.AppendHTML() to a new blank word document.
//create a new word document and add a section and paragraph to it.
Document doc = new Document();
Section sec = doc.AddSection();
Paragraph para = sec.AddParagraph();
//Add the text strings to the paragraph and set the style
para.AppendHTML("Add a new paragraph to the word and set the spacing
");
para.ApplyStyle(BuiltinStyle.Heading1);
//set the spacing before and after
para.Format.BeforeAutoSpacing = false;
para.Format.BeforeSpacing = 20;
para.Format.AfterAutoSpacing = false;
para.Format.AfterSpacing = 20;
//save the document to file
doc.SaveToFile("Result1.docx");

{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//create a new word document and load the sample from file
Document document = new Document();
document.LoadFromFile("sample.docx", FileFormat.Docx);
//Add the text strings to the paragraph and set the style
Paragraph para = new Paragraph(document);
TextRange textRange1 = para.AppendText("This is a inserted paragraph.");
textRange1.CharacterFormat.TextColor = Color.Blue;
textRange1.CharacterFormat.FontSize = 15;
//set the spacing before and after
para.Format.BeforeAutoSpacing = false;
para.Format.BeforeSpacing = 10;
para.Format.AfterAutoSpacing = false;
para.Format.AfterSpacing = 10;
//insert the added paragraph to the word document
document.Sections[0].Paragraphs.Insert(1, para);
//save the document to file
document.SaveToFile("Result2.docx", FileFormat.Docx2010);
}
}

Spire.Doc supports to add new shape and shape group to the word document, it also supports to remove the shapes from the word. This article will show you how to reset the size of shape on an existing word document via Spire.Doc.
Firstly, view the original shape on the word document:
Step 1: Create a new instance of word document and load the document from file.
Document doc = new Document();
doc.LoadFromFile("Sample.docx",FileFormat.Docx2010);
Step 2: Get the first section and the third paragraph that contains the shape.
Section section = doc.Sections[0]; Paragraph para = section.Paragraphs[2];
Step 3: Get the shape and reset the width and height for the shape.
ShapeObject shape = para.ChildObjects[0] as ShapeObject; shape.Width = 400; shape.Height = 300;
Step 4: Save the document to file.
doc.SaveToFile("result.docx",FileFormat.Docx2010);
Effective screenshot of the shape after reset the size.

Paragraph para = section.Paragraphs[2];
ShapeObject shape = para.ChildObjects[0] as ShapeObject;
shape.Width = 400;
shape.Height = 300;
doc.SaveToFile("result.docx", FileFormat.Docx2010);

Tab stops are markers placed on the ruler that define how text or numbers are aligned on a line. To add tab stops to a paragraph in Microsoft Word, we need to open the Tabs dialog box and then set the tab stop position, alignment and leader as shown below.
This article elaborates how to add tab stops to paragraphs in word document programmatically using Spire.Doc.
Detail steps:
Step 1: Instantiate a Document object and add a section to it.
Document document = new Document(); Section section = document.AddSection();
Step 2: Add paragraph 1 to the section.
Paragraph paragraph1 = section.AddParagraph();
Step 3: Add tab stops to paragraph 1.
//Add tab and set its position (in points)
Tab tab = paragraph1.Format.Tabs.AddTab(28);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph1.AppendText("\tWashing Machine");
//Add another tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph1.Format.Tabs.AddTab(280);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//Specify tab leader type
tab.TabLeader = TabLeader.Dotted;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph1.AppendText("\t$650");
Step 4: Add paragraph 2 to the section.
Paragraph paragraph2 = section.AddParagraph();
Step 5: Add tab stops to paragraph 2.
//Add tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph2.Format.Tabs.AddTab(28);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph2.AppendText("\tRefrigerator");
//Add another tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph2.Format.Tabs.AddTab(280);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//Specify tab leader type
tab.TabLeader = TabLeader.NoLeader;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph2.AppendText("\t$800");
Step 6: Save and close the document object.
document.SaveToFile("Tab.docx", FileFormat.Docx2013);
document.Close();

namespace AddTapStops
{
class Program
{
static void Main(string[] args)
{
//Instantiate a Document object
Document document = new Document();
//Add a section
Section section = document.AddSection();
//Add paragraph 1
Paragraph paragraph1 = section.AddParagraph();
//Add tab and set its position (in points)
Tab tab = paragraph1.Format.Tabs.AddTab(28);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph1.AppendText("\tWashing Machine");
//Add another tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph1.Format.Tabs.AddTab(280);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//Specify tab leader type
tab.TabLeader = TabLeader.Dotted;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph1.AppendText("\t$650");
//Add paragraph 2
Paragraph paragraph2 = section.AddParagraph();
//Add tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph2.Format.Tabs.AddTab(28);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph2.AppendText("\tRefrigerator"); //move to next tab and append text
//Add another tab and set its position (in points)
tab = paragraph2.Format.Tabs.AddTab(280);
//Set tab alignment
tab.Justification = TabJustification.Left;
//Specify tab leader type
tab.TabLeader = TabLeader.NoLeader;
//move to next tab and append text
paragraph2.AppendText("\t$800");
//Save and close the document object
document.SaveToFile("Tab.docx", FileFormat.Docx2013);
document.Close();
}
