Is full justification available in Microsoft Word 2003 or 2007
You are welcome. I am glad you found Publisher suitable.
I have the odd habit of referring to "distributed" as "dispersed". Word will do that as well. However, I suspect you will find Publisher more suited to your purpose. -- Tom MSMVP 1998-2007 "ancientseeker" wrote in message ... Thanks to all of you, Tom, Doug, Graham, and Dean for helping me with this. From you I learned that Word does not cut it. Fortunately I also learned that Publisher does cut it! I discovered Publisher on my computer, where it has been since the beginning, but I had never used it since I did not know what it could do. You told me. Now I am using Publisher to publish my newsletter. It actually has two different justification schemes, one it calls "justified" and one it calls "distributed". Neither is really what I call 100%, but "distributed" is at least 95% and that is plenty good enough for the job! So, thanks again.

That is the limit of Word's built-in justification capabilites, if you require further exactitude you probably need a publishing package, maybe Publisher? Hope this helps DeanH "ancientseeker" wrote: "Full Justification" is a typographical standard which results in all lines having exactly the same length. For a definition, see for instance Wikipedia. I have Word 2003 and I cannot find how to produce full justification. There are actually two kinds: (1) without hyphenation of some of the words at the ends of the lines, and (2) with hyphenation. The second kind is capable of producing essentially perfect justification. It is used in TeX, LaTex, and all good newspapers. There are no ragged edges on the right side at all! |
