Abstract
One of the most important information security techniques is the hiding of information. Steganography is the art and science of hiding information in the cover of data (in the form of text, image, video, or audio) such that it does not arise any suspicions, and is difficult or even impossible to discover. This paper presents a method for steganography in the form of text which uses the methods of text justifying in typing editors. The method presented in this paper is able to hide information better than some of previous algorithms in this field. This algorithm is resistant to various forms of attack such as visual, structural and statistical attacks. Another important capability of this method is that it can be used to send printed information.
