Adjusting text alignment

You can adjust text alignment for selected paragraphs.

  1. Click in a paragraph or select a group of paragraphs you want to adjust.
  2. Choose Format > Text and choose an alignment (left, center, justified, or right). To change the alignment, make a different selection.

If you prefer to write from right to left instead of left to right, you can do so. Choose Format > Text > Writing Direction > Right to Left to change the setting.
