centered text
Not left-aligned words
Centered text is text aligned so that each line is equidistant from both left and right margins, creating a symmetrical appearance.
Common in titles, headings, wedding invitations, and poetry.
In word processors and design software, centering is a basic formatting option: She centered the chapter title.
Centered text works well for short passages but becomes harder to read in longer blocks because the ragged left edge disrupts the eye's return path.
