How to Center Text in Notion

Use this interactive demo to learn how to fake center-align text in Notion using columns.

Quick summary

Notion does not have a native center align text option, but you can simulate centered text by using the /columns command to create a 3-column layout and placing your content in the middle column. This workaround lets Notion users achieve a centered appearance by adjusting the widths of the surrounding empty columns.


Steps

  1. On your Notion page, type /columns and select 3 columns.
  2. Keep in mind that Notion does not have a native center align text option, so this method uses columns as a workaround.
  3. Drag your text block or type your text into the middle column.
  4. Adjust the left and right column widths to position the text near the center.
  5. Leave the side columns empty if you only want the text to appear centered.
  6. Click outside the block when the layout looks right.

📌 Why this matters

Notion lacks a built-in center text alignment feature, which frustrates users trying to create polished, visually structured pages. This demo reveals a practical workaround using Notion's native column blocks to simulate centered text without any third-party tools or custom code. Understanding this technique helps teams and individuals produce cleaner page layouts inside Notion, improving readability and document presentation. It's an essential tip for anyone using Notion for wikis, docs, or public-facing pages where formatting matters.
