+<para>This parameter provides
+the means of indenting the body text relative to
+section titles.
+For left-to-right text direction, it indents the left side.
+For right-to-left text direction, it indents the right side.
+It is used in place of the 
+<parameter>title.margin.left</parameter> for
+all XSL-FO processors except FOP 0.25.
+It enables support for side floats to appear
+in the indented margin area.
+</para>
+<para>This start-indent property is added to the fo:flow
+for certain page sequences.  Which page-sequences it is 
+applied to is determined by the template named
+<literal>set.flow.properties</literal>.
+By default, that template adds it to the flow
+for page-sequences using the <quote>body</quote>
+master-reference, as well as appendixes and prefaces.
+</para>
+<para>If this parameter is used, section titles should have
+a start-indent value of 0pt if they are to be
+outdented relative to the body text.
+</para>
+
+<para>If you are using FOP, then set this parameter to a zero
+width value and set the <parameter>title.margin.left</parameter>
+parameter to the negative value of the desired indent.
+</para>
+
+<para>See also <parameter>body.end.indent</parameter> and
+<parameter>title.margin.left</parameter>.
