This sequence selects justification as follows: n = 0: Selects left justification

n = 1: Selects centering

n = 2: Selects right justification

n = 3: Selects full justification The default setting is n = 0.

Full justification (n = 3) is performed when the buffer becomes full. HT and BS are invalid except in n = 0 mode.

For n = 3 a WIDTH statement may be required.

For n = 3 there should be no carriage returns within a paragraph. NLQ only.
