left align
Text hugs margin
Left align means to arrange text or other elements so their left edges form a straight vertical line while the right edges remain ragged.
This is the default text alignment in most Western writing systems: The document was left aligned with a one-inch margin.
Also appears as the verb left-align and the adjective left-aligned.
