in word how do i make the letter fit the page evenly

[charlotte]

in word how do i make the words end evenly throughout the letter like this:
mary had a little old lamb
mary had a little young lamb
instead of like this:
mary had a littel lamb
mary had a little young lamb.

 

[SVC]

The quickest way is to select all (Ctrl + A) and then justify (Ctrl + J).

If you are starting your letter using Normal.dot and want this change to be
your standard format, follow the instructions in this link:

But I would strongly discourage making the Normal style justified, as this
will have unexpected effects in labels and on other styles. If you must have
a justified style for most of your documents, make Body Text justified; then
select the default empty paragraph in Normal.dot and make it Body Text.

thank you kindly,
i noticed all i had to do was go to the task bar and click justify
