Tip #15: Align your text accurately by setting your own tab stops
Ever been in a situation when you almost had a panic attack after seeing how your document content has been completely misaligned while on printing? I think we all have.
That's why in today's tip, I'm going to talk about how you can use your own Tab Stops in Writer to ensure that text in documents always stay in their place—no matter if you're printing it or converting it to a PDF file.
Here's how you can use Tab Stops to align your texts accurately:
1. Open the Writer document.
2. Select the text you want to apply the Tab Stop to.
3. Click on the ruler where you want the Tab Stop to appear.
4. By clicking on the Tab Stop and selecting Insert Tab Stop, you can choose between Right, Left and Center alignments or even drag and drop the Tab Stop to a different location of your choice.
5. Now place the cursor in front of the text that you want to move to the desired Tab Stop and click on the Tab button on your keyboard. So in this case, you'd place the cursor in front of "Sylvester", "26", "26/12/1991" and "MBA".
6. The text will move and get aligned accordingly. Repeat this step for all the selected texts that you want to move to the
Tab Stop
.
7. If you wish to access further settings, click on the Tab Stop from the ruler and go to Tabs. You can change the Distance, Alignment and Leader settings here. If you want to apply your Tab Stop throughout the document, you can change the default position in the Default Tab Stops option.
This way, even if you're converting the document to a PDF file or printing it, the alignment of the text will stay intact.
Happy writing!
