Justifying Text
Default:
Text is always left-justified. Right justification is not in effect.
Justification is the process of spacing out the text so that each line aligns to
the respective right and left margins. TFORM always justifies text to the
left margin, and normally leaves a ragged margin on the right. Turning on
justification causes text to be justified to both the left and right margins.
During justification, TFORM adds extra spaces between characters until the
line only fills the space allotted by the margin settings. TFORM never
justifies the last line of a paragraph.
Turning Justification
On and Off
To begin right justification, enter this command:
\SET JUSTIFY ON
To return to only left justification, enter this command:
\SET JUSTIFY OFF
Entering SET JUSTIFY ON at the beginning of your file puts right
justification in effect for your entire document. When you want to stop
justification temporarily, enter SET JUSTIFY OFF. Right justification
resumes with the next SET JUSTIFY ON command.
Figure 9-6 shows the justification commands in an edit file. Figure 9-7
illustrates justified text in a printed document.
