No, just use the package - it sets the relevant lengths to change the style of marking paragraphs and tries hard to also reset every other length that depends on the original values of these variables. Here is an example of a quite minimal LaTeX document that should show the effect: #+begin_src latex \documentclass{article} \usepackage{blindtext} \usepackage{parskip} \begin{document} \Blinddocument \end{document} #+end_src As I said: The lengths parskip and parindent are very far-reaching, fundamental variables in LaTeX. They are used in many places and globally setting them may lead to unexpected side-effects. If you just look at a couple of paragraphs you won't see any problems. But if you write more complex documents, using packages like listings to display code, use other environments mixed with paragraphs and lists, there will occur problems with the spacing. I don't remember all the details, I just always remember to use either the package parskip or (in most of my use-cases) the documentclass option "parskip=full" from the Koma script classes (that I use nearly exclusively) - when I... consider to use this style of marking paragraphs. :) -- Until the next mail..., Stefan.
