Excerpt from Printing: A Practical Treatise on the Art of Typography as Applied More Particularly to the Printing of Books For increasing For decreasing Thin and middling, Middling Space, En quadrat, Thin space, Thick space and middling, Hair space Two thick spaces. (as a last resource). Justifying a line should be performed by spacing each line out with equal tightness, but not to such a degree as to pre vent the stick being emptied easily. Good justification, so as to allow a handful or page of type being lifted without dropping a single letter, is evidence of the careful workman.
