Align text
Select the text box, a shape with text, a table cell, a row, or a column.
In the Text pane of the Format inspector, click Style, then click the alignment buttons you want.
You can adjust text in a text box, shape, table cell, row, or column so that the text is aligned to the left or right border, centered, or aligned on both left and right (justified). You can also change the vertical alignment, adjust line spacing, set the text margins, and change the number of columns in a shape or text box.
You can use tab stops to align text. When you press the Tab key (or Option-Tab when you’re working in a table cell), the insertion point and any text to the right of it move to the next tab stop, and text you enter starts at that point.
Select the text box, a shape with text, a table cell, a row, or a column.

To change the position of the tab stop, drag its icon along the ruler.
To remove a tab stop, drag the tab stop icon below the ruler until it disappears.
