Assume you use the Javadoc tag @component for your component section and you enter spaces between section starters and section text. 

To adjust Doc-O-Matic, do one of the following:

• Create a section named component and type component in the Javadoc box in the Edit Section dialog box.
• Select the Summary section in the Section list and type component in the Javadoc box in the Edit Section dialog.
• On the [General Settings] > Sections > Delimiters page select the Allow spaces as section delimiters check box.
