Centering Text

Default:

Centering is not in effect. Text is aligned to the left.

You use the CENTER command to center lines or blocks of text in your
printed document. You specify the number of lines you want centered by
including a number in the command. If you enter CENTER with no value,
only the next line is centered. For example:

\CENTER 10
\CENTER

Number of lines

Command

The command

alone centers only

the next line.

Note

The CENTER command centers the lines immediately following the command, including
blank lines as well as text. If the text you want centered includes blank lines, be sure to
count them when you enter the value in the command.

You can also use the CENTER command with ON and OFF. TFORM
centers all the text lines between the CENTER ON and CENTER OFF
commands. Figure 9-17 illustrates an edit file using both forms of the
CENTER command. Figure 9-18 shows the resulting printed document.
