Block text is indented both on the left and the right. Quotes are usually set in block text.
Commonly there is only one level of block text.
Block text should be aligned with other types of intended text such as bulleted and numbered lists or indents. The indentation on the right and left should be the same.
The space before and after a block text should be the same as the space recommended for block paragraphs.
