As Tim Chase said Vim does right justification with spaces, it is not
"real" right justification which is done using some form of "set
paragraph attribute 'align' to 'right'". You can do this in HTML (via
using CSS attribute `text-align: right`), doc[x] (Word has a button
for this), etc, but not in a txt file, and not with `:right` command.

You need to ask yourself "what do I need right alignment for" and act
accordingly, adjusting &textwidth to make text look right *on your
computer with yours Word window size, zoom factor and window
resolution* will do no good because it will no longer look right once
some of factors changes. Maybe you just need to create an rtf document
instead using Word and set that paragraph attribute there.
