Text Alignment
Word provides the facility of Text Alignment as well. Alignment refers to the way text is set with respect to the margins. There are four types of alignment, left, center, right and justified. To change the type of alignment you can select the text and then click on the alignment buttons present on the formatting toolbar.
Left alignment: Text is said to be left aligned if it is aligned to the left margin of the page. This is the default mode of alignment. To left align a paragraph, position the cursor anywhere in the paragraph, and click on the Align Left button on the Formatting toolbar.
Center alignment: When the text is centered between the left and right margins, it is said to be center aligned. To center a line or paragraph, position the cursor anywhere in the paragraph and click on the Center button on the formatting tool bar.
Right alignment: Right alignment refers to the text when it is aligned to the right margin of the page. To right align a paragraph, position the cursor on any line in the paragraph, and click on the Align Right button on the Formatting toolbar.
Justified alignment: This feature aligns a paragraph on both left and right margins. In this type of alignment, the spacing between the words is adjusted so that each line of the text begins at the left margin and ends at the right margin. To justify a text, position the cursor anywhere in the paragraph, and click on the Justify on the formatting tool bar.
