Is there a way to center everything in a LaTeX document even the text?

Apart from centering normal text, you probably want to center also sectioning titles.
This can be done by loading the sectsty package and issuing
\allsectionsfont{\centering}
Also, for centering multi-line math, use the gather environment.
MWE:
\documentclass{book}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{sectsty}
\allsectionsfont{\centering}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\centering
\chapter{A chapter}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
\section{A section}
\lipsum[1]
\subsection{A subsection}
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetuer adipiscing elit.
\begin{gather*}
a+b=c\\
x^2+y^2=z^2
\end{gather*}
\end{document}

You can put a \centering command right after the beginning of the document.
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
\centering
\lipsum
\end{document}

\centering centers each: \begin{align*}\end{align*} but inside of align* how do you center? Mar 26, 2015 at 19:59

@karlkoeller Yes, my bad, but now I see it is better without argument, optional or not :-) Mar 26, 2015 at 20:06

2@user1531503 -- if you want to center each line of a multi-line math display, don't use
align*, usegather*. i haven't time to research the details of how theamsmathstructures interact with\centering, butgatherall by itself centers each line of its content, so shouldn't cause a problem. Mar 26, 2015 at 20:07 -
