PUB2000: How to Justify a Single Line
This article was previously published under Q212525
Microsoft Publisher does not justify the last line in a paragraph.
In addition, if you have only a single line of text in a text frame,
Publisher does not justify that single line.
Publisher is designed to justify all lines of text in a paragraph except
the last line or a single line of text. This behavior is similar to
Microsoft Word.
You can justify a single line of text in Publisher by using one of the
following methods.
If you want to create a single line in a Publisher text frame and have
that one line justified, use the following methods.
Method 1: Use the Autofit Text Command
- Create a text frame wide enough to accommodate the line of text.
- Type your text.
- On the Format menu, point to Autofit Text, and then click Best Fit.
NOTE: Using this method will either increase or decrease the size of the text to accommodate the Best Fit feature.
Method 2: Force Justification
You can force Microsoft Publisher into justifying your line of text.
- Create a text frame wide enough to accommodate the line of text.
- On the Formatting toolbar, click Justified. Or, press CTRL+J.
- Press SHIFT+ENTER to insert a hard carriage return. This forces Publisher to end one line and begin another without starting a new paragraph.
APPLIES TO
- Microsoft Publisher 2000 Standard Edition

Community Feedback System
Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high
and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances
are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back.
Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what
didn't.
Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be
correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each
other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're
not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry
edits), please consult a professional.
