We'd like to have the ability to change the justification of the text, specifically to full justification.

Any update on whether this feature will be added to an upcoming release Trevor? Full justification would really tighten up the overall appearance of "professionalism" in our client-facing docs.

Nothing to report on this yet though we are looking into it. For now you would have to export to Word and apply the justification in Word or Pages and then save to PDF.

Good idea. We'll probably do that. I think it would still make for a nice enhancement to be able to do it straight from ScreenSteps though.

We're considering implementing HTML manuals both from our support site and directly from several of our applications (as "help") as well. As far as I can tell, there is no such workaround to allow for justification of text in the HTML version, so we'd really like to see this feature made available directly from the ScreenSteps interface as soon as possible.

Any further discussion on your end, Trevor?

HTML pages already support text justification by using CSS. This page discusses the CSS text-align property and the various settings:

You could customize a ScreenSteps HTML template to include the appropriate CSS.

Thanks Trevor, we'll give that a try.

Any progress with this as an internal SS feature, Trevor?
