I am finishing a long book (230+ pages) and the client wants this justified.
I have turned on hyphenation (1.3cm zone - max of 2 per para), selected the
option of using Wordperfect full justification, and allowed at least 14pt line
spacing for an 11pt true type body font (Georgia). I am not kerning fonts as
True Type fonts should, in theory, auto-adjust - and I have read that Word
2000's kerning feature is not that great.
The effect looks very good except that, in places, the justification does not
seem to work well.
Are there any tips for improving problem areas of justification?
The only ones I know are as follows:-
a)For selective problem text increase of decrease the character spacing by 0.1pt
b)Insert a non-breaking space or a 1/4 em space
c)Use a line break at the end of a sentence which finishes at the end of a line.
Does anyone have any suggestions, ideas or tools that can help with this task?
Thanks in advance,
Steven
