"Justifying" your text

Whenever you are writing text and creating CONTENT and you want it to look smart by making the paragraph align with both sides of the page. You can use the "justify" tab to make it do that.

Sometimes you see text that doesn't align to the right of the page

To fix that you need to use the 'Justify' TAB which is next to the 'Text' box and the 'Underline' button. (This might vary depending upon your theme).

The Justify 'tab' has four lines inside a square and is on the second row in the 'edit page' section on your wordpress page or post. (See screenshot below)

You simply highlight the paragraph or text you want to 'align' and click the 'justify' tab button and the paragraph or text will align across the page. It works around images and 'tidy's-up' the overall look of your content. (This page for example has not been "justified")

It will look very clean and tidy. Give it a try you might like it.

thank you that is good to know had forgotten all that

It is a great reminder, I remembered you advised me before, but I forgot again, lol . :)) Thanks again, Peter. :))

Thanks for this reminder! Usually I was so hasty to publish my content that I forgot to do alignment on my post hehe.

I tell everyone with crooked right sides how to do this. Just remember that some paragraphs can look very odd when you do this as the words will end up being quite irregularly spaced. To fix this just unjustify that paragraph. Even the uneven right side will look better that really spaced out words.

Great tip, Peter. You are correct, justified paragraphs do have a more professional look. Sometimes you have to play with the justification if you are inserting images but with a little patients, you can make it work. Thanks for sharing that tip with everyone.

Amen....once got a failing grade for not justifing a paper I submitted. Re-typed , resubmitted and passed. I have never forgotten that experience and ALWAYS justify . It's a clean and professional way to present..easier on the eyes and actually lends to better flow when reading.
Thanks for the remihder..yet again, Peter.

Sorry, I haven't figured out how to justify the text of comments!!

We had to use hyphens a lot to get this effect!

Thanks to you for heping me w/ this a few weeks ago. I always like hearing from you & I appreciate your help.

Thank you for reminder, I need to do it, regards.

Hey Peter, I remember you sending me this tip, it totally cleaned up the "look". Great you're sharing it with everyone, and thanks for sending me one of your books.
Been busy, sorry I haven't thanked you earlier
