    public static void main(String[] args)
    {
        try
        {
            WordDocument doc = new WordDocument();

            Run run1 = new Run();
            run1.addText("Center alignment.");

            Run run2 = new Run();
            run2.addText("Left alignment.");

            Run run3 = new Run();
            run3.addText("Right alignment.");

            Paragraph paragraph1 = new Paragraph();
            paragraph1.add(run1);
            paragraph1.setHorizontalTextAlignment(HorizontalAlignmentType.CENTER);

            Paragraph paragraph2 = new Paragraph();
            paragraph2.add(run2);
            paragraph2.setHorizontalTextAlignment(HorizontalAlignmentType.LEFT);

            Paragraph paragraph3 = new Paragraph();
            paragraph3.add(run3);
            paragraph3.setHorizontalTextAlignment(HorizontalAlignmentType.RIGHT);

            doc.getBody().add(paragraph1);
            doc.getBody().add(new Paragraph()); //empty paragraph
            doc.getBody().add(paragraph2);
            doc.getBody().add(new Paragraph()); //empty paragraph
            doc.getBody().add(paragraph3);

            doc.save("c:\\test\\output.docx", true);
