 * I need to know why when I add text to a post that wordpress spreads the text 
   out adding large spaces between words. The following text displays ok in this
   post and then appears spread out in posts on my site.
 * From:
 * <div align=”center”><img src=”[http://www.teachingwithict.co.uk/originalimage.jpg”/></div&gt](http://www.teachingwithict.co.uk/originalimage.jpg”/></div&gt);
 * To:
 * <div align=”center”><img src=”[http://www.teachingwithict.co.uk/newimage.jpg”/></div&gt](http://www.teachingwithict.co.uk/newimage.jpg”/></div&gt);
 * What can I do to resolve this?

 * In your css, making this:
    `.post { margin: 0 0 40px; text-align: justify; }
 * into this:
    `.post { margin: 0 0 40px; text-align: left; }
 * seems to sort it out ?

 * It’s in your theme file.
    [http://www.teachingwithict.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css](http://www.teachingwithict.com/wp-content/themes/default/style.css)
 * Presentation > Theme Editor and it should open the css first.
