    Not justified, IMHO. You should aim to have about 40-50 characters per line for multiple-column work, so let this dictate your type size.

    I do quite a bit of publication work and the standard of copywriting/journalism is on the slide, so be wary of things like text being supplied so that each sentence starts a new paragraph. If I have to argue this point anymore, I’m going to punch someone in the throat.
