Entering and justifying text in lines or columns
Text can be justified as you enter it or after you enter it. The controls for justifying are the same
in either case. The following procedures are for justifying text as you enter it. There is a tip at
the end of each procedure explaining how to justify after entering.
Note: You cannot justify text in columns in TOWS or Small Text. If you need text in
columns, use the Enter/Edit Text dialog box.
To justify text in TOWS
1 Click the Text on the Work Surface tool to open the TOWS toolbar.
2 Click one of the justification buttons.
3 Enter text on the work surface. The line of text will justify left, center, or right.
4 To justify horizontally or vertically, select the text, then click Text > Horizontal
Placement or Vertical Placement.
5 Choose the alignment.
Tip: To change the justification if the text is already entered, select all the text, and then click
one of the justification buttons. You can also select all of the text, click Text > Justification,
and then choose left, center, or right justification.
To justify text in the Enter/Edit Text dialog box
1 In the Enter/Edit Text dialog box, click F9 Layout to open the Layout dialog box.
2 Choose F2 for either line justification or column justification and click the justification
choice. Use the preview box on the right of the dialog box to see the effect of choices.
