Justification Settings

If you are justifying text you will be unsuccessful (meaning it will be ugly) if you do not have enough 1) characters per line, 2) if you do not use hyphenation and 3) if you do not adjust your justification settings.

1) to get more characters per line (remember a character is a letter, number, punctuation and space) you can reduce the size of the type and you would have more characters per line. Please do not go below 7pt type.

2) turn hyphenation on. you need to just check the box in the paragraph panel

(remember TRY not to use awkward hyphenation such as de-
sign, try not to hyphenate proper nouns)















3) change the justification setting in the paragraph panel, options justification
try changing the numbers to
80 82 85
0 0 1%

here  is link to visually refresh your memories.
