Is there a way to center the text on a screen without having to eye it up? All other graphics programs I have, give you a button to perfectly center the text.

Yes

From the start-up screen goto "TITLING"

Using "Pages" as the effect, select "ENTER/EDIT TEXT"

Select the "TEXT" button

Select the "LINE" BUTTON

Under the Alignment selection select "CENTERED"

Select "OK"

Thanks for that info as I aleady knew that. I realized I wasn't clear with my question. Can I center the text box once I resize it down.

Yes, just grab the right side of the text box with the cursor and extend the box all the way to the right side of the screen. Then do the same thing on the left side. Assuming you've done what rone mentioned above, which ensures the text is centered in a box, it will now be centered on the screen.
