Text-align Property
The text-align property is used to control the horizontal positioning of blocks of text in a web page.
You can align text to the left, right, center, or justified. By default, most web browsers align text to the left.

Consider the code given below :
<style type = ‘‘text/css’’>
p {text-align: right}

h1 {text-align: center}
h4 {text-align: justify}
</style>

The above code specifies the browser that paragraph text is right aligned, heading level one is centre
aligned, and heading level four is justify aligned.

Text-shadow Property

The text-shadow property is used to apply shadow to the text. The value of the text-shadow property
is given as:

text-shadow: h-shadow v-shadow color
where, h-shadow specifies the position of horizontal shadow in pixels, v-shadow specifies the position
of the vertical shadow in pixels, and color specifies the colour of the shadow.
For example,

text-shadow: 3px 4px orange
Here, 3px specifies the position of the horizontal shadow in pixels, 4px specifies the position of the
vertical shadow in pixels, and orange specifies the colour of the shadow.
