SUMMARY
When you are using SHIFT+ENTER to create a new line within a justified paragraph, the line of text justifies regardless of how many words of text are on the line.

Word for Windows doesn't calculate a &quot;hotspot&quot; to determine when text will actually justify. For example, some word processors require text to fill 75 percent of a line before text will justify. In this case, Word will justify any amount of text.

To see this on the screen:

  In a new paragraph formatted as justified, type "just text"  Press SHIFT+ENTER, and the text will appear as:      just                                          text   If you press only ENTER, the text will appear as:      just text
