              Aligning text refers to the arrangement of text relative to the margins or the boundaries of its containing
              element. Proper text alignment helps to improve readability gives a clear visual hierarchy and guides the
              audience’s focus to key points. In LibreOffice Impress, text can be aligned horizontally (left, center, right,
