Helpful Hints • The typewriter only justifies jobs which were typed Into storage using ARtn. • The typewriter justifies to the right margin. For example, If the right margin is set at 70. the typewriter justifies the lines at 70. • Storage must be off to play back a justified job. • When you play back a justified copy, the typewriter changes the line endings only on your paper. The storage area remains unchanged. • The following items can be part of a job and will not be justified: - centered text - decimal tab text - any line that you typed with a carrier return before the right margin beep (for example, the short last line of a paragraph). • The following Items will not justify, and they should not be used in a justified job: - any movements made with the Paper Up arid Paper Down keys - lines that contain stop codes for variab€e information - lines that contain text with more than two spaces between words - mark (Shift + Code + M) - manual underline - double underline - pitch change. • Do not store footnotes, page headings or page numbers with the job since revisions may cause page endings to change. • If you have forgotten to underscore text that is to be justified, you must reopen the storage area and use the Advnc + To or Play to get to the first word to be underscored. Then turn underscore on and play through the text to be underscored. Do not move backward to underscore text. 4-16 Operator's Guide IOP wt. wr cow Format Storage Letters, reports, addresses for envelopes and many other things thi you type require different margin and tab settings.
