    Should you justify a research paper?
    I'm writing a research paper on the birds of the antarctic and its finished. I'm very proud of it but before I submit it I really want to know - should I justify it or not? I don't want to screw this up. Please help!

    You should do a good summary.

    Possibly referring to indentation format.

    That's what I was thinking. I'd not justify it then, to make it look like a novel, since weird spacing can occur between words.

    Although, I did find this --

    Justifying text can make a document look professional. When you justify text in Microsoft Word, the text is aligned with both the left and right margins or with any paragraph indents. Because justifying a short line of text creates large spaces between words, Word does not justify a paragraph containing a single line or the last line of a paragraph. You can either justify the text manually or by making justification a property of the style applied to your text. How do justify text in Word?
