update: changing the formatting preset (paragraph, header, preformatted, etc) seems to affect how the text is indented on the left side. when the preformatted option is selected, the text displays correctly. but still, why can’t i choose full justification or left alignment in the default ‘paragraph’ preset?

i posted a second post to my blog through the link above that shows how different presets are behaving.

hi doc4,

thanks, it’s been a good experience so far! here is the link: http://tayloryoelin.com/wordpress/.

and since my posting of the question, i’ve tried tinkering with it some more. i should stop. i tried adding page breaks in the html tab (since hitting return to add a line in the visual editor didn’t actually add a line when it posted). that seems to have confused my post as to where paragraphs stop and start, but still wont add a break. i’ve also tinkered with the different formatting choices (headers vs paragraph vs preformatted) and they all seem to have the same issue.

so as of right now, i’m not touching the keyboard until i know what i’m doing! the post looks beautiful in the visual editor, but the formattingn still isn’t translating on the live version.
