Question about paragraph justification - davidjackson - 30-04-2022
The VM is at times obsessive over text justification, usually ensuring a very straight left margin, and in places with strong indications that words have been forced into unnatural positions to finish off right margin justification.
Notwithstanding that, there is, normally, very little attempt at ruling to ensure sentences are straight. Sentences often wobble up and down.
This is the reverse of many western illustrated manuscripts, where ruling was the first task to be carried out.

The left margin is obsessively neat, and the text is carefully written right up to the image, but no attempt at ruling.
Is anyone aware of any manuscript traditions that are so obsessive over justification but lax about ruling?
