I created a multi-level list and linked the levels to the built in Heading styles. Heading 1 was supposed to be centered. When I click within the text of H1, the center button is selected and the ruler properly shows 1 inch margins on both sides. But the text is slightly left of center. If I click on the left-align button, the text jumps left, to a 1/2 inch margin, but the ruler maintains its position at 1 inch.

Go back into the multi-level list definition dialog.
Change the Indent to 0.


How to create numbered headings or outline numbering in Ribbon Versions of Word by Shauna Kelly

Centering text with autonumbering is somewhat tricky - where is the number meant to sit?

If you want the text centered, then you should have that level of the numbering separated from the text by a space instead of a tab. Then it will behave in a more predictable way.
