In
typesetting, justification (can also be referred to as 'full justification') is the
typographic alignment setting of
text or
images within a column or "measure" to align along both the left and right
margin. Text set this way is said to be "justified".In justified text, the spaces between words, and, to a lesser extent, between
glyphs or
letters (
kerning), are stretched or sometimes compressed in order to make the text align with both the left and right margins. When using justification, it is customary to treat the last line of a
paragraph separately by left or right aligning it, depending on the language direction. Lines in which the spaces have been stretched beyond their normal width are called loose lines, while those whose spaces have been compressed are called tight lines.
