Description

determines the horizontal expressing of the text in the limits.

Syntax

CSS2.1	text-align: center \| justify \| left \| right \| inherit
CSS3	text-align: center \| justify \| left \| right \| start \| end

Values

center: Center text alignment. The text is placed in the horizontal center of the window the browser or container where the text block is located. Lines of text like are strung on an invisible axis that runs through the center of the web page. Like the alignment method is actively used in headings and various signatures, like figure captions, it gives an official and respectable look to the design of the text. In all other cases, center alignment is rarely used for the reason that that reading a large amount of such text is inconvenient.
justify: Justify, which means justify left and right edge. To perform this action, the browser in this case adds spaces between words.
left: Left alignment of the text. In this case, lines of text are aligned along the left edge, and the right edge is located in a "ladder". This type of alignment is the most popular on sites because it allows the user to easily look for a new line and comfortably read large text.
right: Right alignment of text. This leveling method is as an antagonist to the previous type. Namely, the lines of text are equal to right edge, and the left remains "torn". Because the left edge is not aligned, namely, reading new lines begins with it, such text is more difficult to read, than if it were left-aligned. So right-aligned edge is usually used for short headings of no more than three lines. We do not consider specific sites where the text has to be read from the right to the left, there perhaps a similar method of alignment will come in handy.
auto: Does not change the position of the element.
inherit: Inherits the value of the parent.
start: Same as left if text goes from left to right and right if text goes from right to left.
end: Same as right if text goes from left to right and left when text goes from right to left.

With this type of embossing, the image is pressed (without paint and foil) into paper or cardboard.

Kaptal (from German Kaptal, abbreviated from Kaptalband) - a binding element attached at the head and tail of the book block and goes around the spine folds of notebooks between the protruding edges of the binding sides. Previously, it was made in the form of a strip of leather with a border of colored threads tightly braiding the core; this strip was sewn to notebooks. Previously, captal prevented the edges of the book block from collapsing under the weight of the binding, and also reduced damage to the work when it was pulled from the shelf by the binding spine edging. Currently does not perform a protective function and has been replaced by decorative braid
