Uneven spacing on the left and right sides of the header text in a Webflow website can be caused by several factors. Here are a few possible reasons and solutions:

  1. Text alignment: Check the text alignment settings for the header element. If the alignment is set to justified or centered, it may result in uneven spacing. Adjust the alignment to left or right depending on the desired outcome.

  2. Padding and margin settings: Review the padding and margin settings for the header element and any parent elements. Uneven spacing can occur if there is excessive padding or margin applied to one side. Reset the padding and margin to the default values or adjust them symmetrically to achieve equal spacing.

  3. Container settings: If the header text is placed inside a container element, it's important to ensure that the container is properly sized and aligned. Check the width and alignment settings of the container. If it's set to a fixed width, make sure it matches the width of the header text. Also, verify that the container is centered within its parent element.

  4. Font properties: Certain font properties such as letter-spacing and word-spacing can affect the spacing between characters and words. Check these properties and adjust them as needed to achieve a consistent spacing throughout the header text.

  5. Responsive design: Uneven spacing may only be visible on specific screen sizes or devices. Make sure to test the website on different devices and screen sizes to identify if the issue is limited to a specific context. In such cases, you may need to apply specific styling or adjustments to ensure the spacing is consistent across all devices.

Remember to preview the website and make adjustments as necessary. If the issue persists, it may be useful to seek assistance from the Webflow community or contact Webflow support for further guidance.
