    left and center alignment offbase after page breaking between 1st and 2nd pages

    Has anyone ever seen this? I dislike word for this very reason. weird stuff set automatically. in the below images, when I left align, the cursor is in the middle. center alignment throws it to the right. this is the first page of a 10 page document. before I had this blank page, I put the cursor in front of the first word on the first page, and pushed ""Ctrl+Enter"" to insert a page break. now it's messed up. anyone know where I went wrong?

    It would be much easier to see what the problem is if you at least posted images with Word's formatting display turned on (i.e. click the ¶ symbol on the Ribbon) or, better yet, attached an actual document to your post.

    I really cannot see what you think is wrong. The text is set to middle, and that is where the cursor is flashing. If I set the first page to left alignment, the blinking cursor moves to the left.

    well I have no freaking clue what happened! I just opened the original document that doesn't have all the text stripped out of it and pushed left aligned, and now it works fine. whatever. sorry to waste peoples' time. and no, I wasn't delusional. I wouldn't have posted this if the weirdness wasn't occurring..
