Default Getting copied text to fill lines in a doc with standard margins?

When copying text from one document with smaller margins (eg. a 2 column doc)
into a word document with standard margins, is there a way to get the text to
fill out each line to the edge of the page, rather than only taking up half
the page and running down the left hand side?
