Document Summary
A paragraph change was indicated by a larger space after the period following the last sentence of one paragraph. A latter evolution introduced graphic elements,, such as squares or bullets, as paragraph separators but still there was no break in the text, such as a line return. Columns were set with a line return, but without space between paragraph. The beginning of a new paragraph was indicated by an indent where the first line of a new paragraph starts a few character-widths in from the left alignment. The indent must be deeper if the leading is loose; more interline space normalizes the perception of the column"s width and a bigger hole must be cut into the paragraph. The crafting of type beyond composition and style. One of the designer"s most important tasks is to give information an order that allows the viewer to navigate it.
