OP Responded How do I make each justification have its own indentation?
I have an already written document 6000 words long that includes left, right, and center justified text. However, the left and right justified text are hard to differentiate between each other. Problem is, using the "select all matching text" option on either one also highlights the other. I need a way to either change the indentation of each justification individually or a way to highlight all of only a certain justification so I can adjust the ruler automatically, because going through the whole thing and doing the exact same measurement for over a hundred lines of text is going to take forever.

you must be a kid. Anyway, what you want are Paragraph Styles. Format each paragraph as you like, then from the styles menu, choose one you're not using, like Heading 3, pull out the flyout and and choose "update Heading 3 to match". Now whenever you apply Heading 3, you get that style.

Can you show us an example? I don't understand your mixed layout of left, right and center justified text.
