Reply To: Justification settings

kjgEnergy: “As far a type distortion goes, do you mean horizontal and vertical scaling? If yes, I was taught in college that it is not acceptable to distort any type, ever.”

Actually, looking at your settings above, you are distorting your type. The third line in the justificaiton box is for Glyph Scaling, not Glyph Spacing. So using 98, 100, 101 will certainly distort your type.

I don't like using letter spacing either and that's why I only use -.1%, 0, -1%. Sometimes this tiny little bit is enough to allow InDesign better hypenation and avoid loose or tight lines.
