We are trying to create our wedding programs.  I have the page landscaped and I am having a problem with the right hand page and getting the names of the wedding party right justified.  Some of the names seem to be off by about 1/2 of a space.  Any suggestions to fix the alignment?

You have not provided enough information about your formatting or text entry
to even hazard a guess at the problem.
If you are using a landscape layout with two 'columns' to represent left and
right 'pages', then you need a two (or three) column table (the extra column
providing space for the fold). Create a paragraph style which is right
aligned with the appropriate fonts and space. Put your names, one per line
in the right cell and apply the style.

I prefer to use newspaper style columns for this type of layout, which gives
you much more flexibility than a table. Be sure you're using right-aligned
tabs (at the right margin of the column) and not attempting to line things
up using spaces or left-aligned tabs. See
