Introduction
When using Word to write a paper or report, sometimes due to existence of both Chinese and English in the content, or font typesetting issues, some paragraphs will appear to wrap early. As a result, our typesetting will appear a little messy.
In fact, in the layout of Word, we can use the "left-right alignment" method to adjust, so that the left-right spacing between each line is consistent. But as a result, two common problems have arisen.
Problem 1: After aligning left and right, the last line of the paragraph is scattered
This problem is very strange. If we select only the last line and choose to align to the left, then we will find that "the entire paragraph is restored to the left alignment". This is because the alignment in Word is based on paragraphs, strictly speaking, line breaks.
So if you want to solve this problem, the more difficult way is to first secretly wrap the last line, and then select only this line for left alignment.
Problem two: punctuation highlights the problem
After using the left-right alignment, sometimes when we check the typesetting, we will accidentally see that the punctuation is abruptly more protruding than the upper and lower lines. This is the problem of punctuation overflow in Word.
There is a simpler and more straightforward solution to this problem: select the block with punctuation overflow => use the right button to open the list => select "Paragraph" => "Chinese printing style" => uncheck "Allow symbol overflow boundary" selected.
In this way, you can see that the punctuation marks are aligned properly.
