                 Modify Paragraph Spacing

                 Paragraph spacing is the space or gap between two paragraphs. Space can be specified in lines or points.
                 The Above paragraph is used to increase or decrease the space between the selected paragraph and the
                 paragraph before the selected one, whereas the Below paragraph is used to increase or decrease the space
                 between the selected paragraph and the paragraph next to the selected one.
                 The steps to set the spacing before and after a paragraph are as follows:

                 Step 1:  Select the paragraph.
                 Step 2:  Select the Format menu from the Menu bar.
                 Step 3:  Click on the Paragraph option from the drop-down menu. The Paragraph dialog box will open.

                 Step 4:  Click on the Indents & Spacing tab.
                 Step 5:  Specify the desired value in the Above paragraph and Below paragraph spin boxes under the
                         Spacing section. In our case, we have specified .50" in the Above paragraph spin box and .25" in
                         the Below paragraph spin box.
                 Step 6:  Click on the OK button. The paragraph spacing of the paragraph will change.

                 Aligning Paragraphs

                 Text alignment controls how text is positioned horizontally within a paragraph.  Following table shows the
                 different text alignments:

                 Ð ÐLeft Alignment: Text is aligned to the left margin.
                 Ð ÐCenter Alignment: Text is centered between the left and right margins.

                 Ð ÐRight Alignment: Text is aligned to the right margin.
                 Ð ÐJustify alignment: Text is spread out to align with both the left and right margins, creating a clean edge
                   on both sides.
