Here’s another area where WordPerfect got it right (and, strangely enough, Microsoft agrees): The scheme by which Word inserts extra space within and between words to achieve the “full justification” is different than the one WordPerfect has used, and (whaddya know) WordPerfect does it better.īut the good news is, you can get WordPerfect’s justification scheme in your Word 2007-2010 document. When I first saw this in my draft, I just thought I’d made a typo - inserted a space in the middle of the word “and.” But when I went back to the document, it looked like this on the screen: It makes a document looks so much more polished. It’s got those nice, straight margins on both sides, not that ragged right margin that looks like it could have been typed on a Selectric.
I have a confession to make: I love the look of fully-justified text.
