I swear I'm doing everything right to put fill characters between tabs, but
they are not appearing. I go to the Tabs tab, select the tab, and then put
in the fill characters, hit "apply" and get nothing. Is there a setting
that's off or something?

well, this may sound stupid but did you type on the "tab" key on your
keyboard to begin with?

I'm not sure what you're asking, but if it's about the actual text in the
document, it's supposed to look like this:
document, it's supposed to look like this:
20 Salads..........$4.95
Personally, I think that's a pretty good deal for 20 salads, but it's not my
menu.

yes, I understand what you want to do as I have been designing menus for
clients too. Ok, I will try my best to explain (you might have guessed,
English is not my native language).
1. type out or copy all the contents into the text box first, including the
prices (one item in one sentence)
eg. Salads$4.95
Chicken Wings$4.95
XXXX$4.95
2. next, select all contents in text box and select the tab command
3. using the right or left arrow (depending on how you want to justify) and
select a position (click on the ruler at the top of the box) at a distance
away from the longest sentence. Then input "." in the fill characters and
click on the apply and ok button.
4. just place the cursor before the dollar sign and type the "Tab" key on
your keyboard and viola!!!

Hope I am explaining it simple enough for you to understand. Later.

Marvelous! I just tried it the way you explained it, and it works. A cool
new thing to learn. ;-)
