SUMMARY
To align separate lines of header and footer text in a Works for Windows Word Processor document, you must use center- or right-aligned tabs, and you must choose to use header and footer paragraphs.

For example, to center the first line of the header but leave the second line left justified, format the text in the header or footer paragraph using left justification and use a center-aligned tab to center the first line.



MORE INFORMATION
In a paragraph of header or footer text, when you press SHIFT+ENTER or when you type enough text to cause a line to wrap, you create an additional line of text in your header or footer. The only way to format these lines separately is to format them with tabs.

For example, if the first line of a two-line header is changed to center alignment, the second line will also be forced to be center aligned, regardless of whether or not the second header line was created by the Works wordwrap feature or by using the SHIFT+ENTER key combination. This restriction applies to multiple-line footers as well.

When you create a header or footer paragraph, centered page numbering is automatically made in the footer line. Tab settings are automatically placed on both the header and footer lines with one center-aligned tab set between the left and right margins and a right-aligned tab set at the right margin.
