     Use the F11 key to open the Styles and Formating window. Make 
sure the Paragraph Styles icon is selected (icon on the left). Right 
click Default and select Modify from the context menu. Use the Indent 
and Spacing tab to set how you want each paragraph to be. Click OK. 
All of the paragraphs should immediately change to what you just set 
(all 100 pages of paragraphs).
