center

Formula for centering text given the scale (s), character count (c), and row count (r):

x = 120 - 6cs / 2
y = 132 - 8rs / 2

For example, a 3-row, 5-character–wide text block at scale 2 should be positioned at (90, 108) to be centered.

x = 120 - 6 * 5 * 2 / 2 = 90
y = 132 - 8 * 3 * 2 / 2 = 108

There’s a calculator in the lab.
