Hi Craig,

With your attachment, all of the text is a single paragraph, with manual line breaks used to separate what appear to be separate paragraphs, instead of paragraph breaks. And, because it's all one paragraph, whatever alignment you apply to one part applies to the whole.

If you click on the ¶ symbol on the Ribbon's Home tab to expose the formatting marks, you'll see a bunch of right/down arrow symbols. These are manual line breaks. A paragraph break looks like ¶.

You can use the following wildcard Find/Replace to replace the manual line breaks (and non-breaking spaces included with some of them) with pairs of proper paragraph breaks:
Find = [^0160^l]{2,}
Replace = ^p^p
To access the wildcards option, click on 'More' on the Find/Replace dialogue.
