Hi Angus,


Hi!

I'm having problems with right alignment of some text. The problem
exists (to my eyes anyway) with a standard article, but is much worse
with the curriculum vitae class. See attached .lyx files; the
resulting .dvi files are, well, ugly.

Is there any way I can make the text line up 'pleasingly'?


Inserting the right aligned text in a *fixed width* table makes the CV
layout as "good" as that of the normal article. (Why a fixed width
table, I wonder?) Can I do better?



I don't see/understand what you mean. In all three examples the three lines are flush right. What am I missing that is not in order (in the dvi output)?


Here (Fedora Core 3) I get something like:

         line 1
         line 2
  [EMAIL PROTECTED]

The last line ends at least one character further to the right than the previous two lines. Also the previous two lines are flushed right, but somehow they look like they 'slope'

I'd post the .dvi file but I've not got access to it from Windows (can't read ext3 partitions).

I'm with Kevin on this one. I don't have the CV class, but the one that used article class looks fine to me. In the DVI, all three lines are flush right. The character 1 being a bit anorexic, you have to look at its base to see that it does extend as far as the terminal 2 in the second line, but the right margin is plumb. My DVI is attached.
