WEEK FOUR
TOPIC: PAGE SET – UP
Page setup means parameters which are normally defined by a user and which help to determine how a printed page will appear.
These parameters can include everything from margins, quality print, size etc.
Text Alignment
This is found in the program’s toolbar. It may be shown as a row of four icons:
Left aligned, right aligned, centred and justified options.
1. LEFT ALIGNED: it is also called flush left or left justified. It is used just as blocked style, each line begins along the left margin of the document. A straight margin is formed on the left and an uneven margin is formed on the right
2. RIGHT ALIGNED: it is also known as right justified of flush right. Each line of text begins along the right margin of the document in this kind of setting. The text expands to the left of the cursor. If more than one line is typed, the next line begin along the right margin.
3. CENTRED ALIGNED: text that is centred text is placed in the centre of each line. The text expands equally to the left and right and it leaves the same amount of space on either side.
4. JUSTIFIED ALIGNED: it combines left and right aligned text, when a block of text is justified, each line fills the entire space from left to right the text occupies 100% of the space.
