Default Simple MS Word question

I left-aligned a title (which is 20 point font large) and I'm trying to fit 2 lines (each with 8 point font characters) right-aligned on the same "line" as the characters of the title. How would I do this? Do I have to somehow "partition" the left and right sides of that particular line to achieve this? Thanks.

can you give an example (such as the title/words) of what you are trying to do? i'll try to figure it out.

The simpliest way to do this is to make this section multi-column (assuming the text on the right side is not required to flow below the large text on the left side). For example, if you make it two columns, then the left column can be a huge font size while the right side column can be smaller size.

Another approach is to make this a table -- similar in concept to the multi-column idea, but you don't have to set up a separate section.

A third approach is to make the left (big) text a separate "picture" and insert it in the document with the normal text (the smaller right side text) set to flow around the "picture". This would work if the smaller text is required to flow below the big test.

There are lots of ways to do this, depending on your requirements.
