Default Trying to center doc copied & pasted in Word

Can only move first & last lines when I copy and paste. No matter where I
place the cursor on the blank page before I paste, the first and last lines
will generally center but the middle lines paste up against the left border.
I am only able to move them if I place the cursor in front of the second
letters in each of those lines.

I've tried changing the margins,indents, etc.

I'd very much appreciate any help.

Unless the text is a single paragraph, you have to select the entire block
of text before centering. Formatting applies only to selected text and any
that is typed following it.
