Use a Paragraph Rule in your style: Define the paragraph style with the text reversed and center (with the correct font/size). Within the style, select Paragraph Rules. Select either Rule Above or Rule Below – the offset will be determined which one is selected. (Make sure Preview is selected so you can make adjustments in the offset and rule weight) Select a weight (thick enough to accommodate the text. Then choose the color. Unless you will be indenting the rule from the left or right, ignore these settings. The offset should be enough to get the rule to encompass the height of the text with some “air” above and below to nicely center the text. I find it is easier to fine tune the Paragraph Rule before writing the style. Then all one needs to do is select the paragraph and create a style.
