generally speaking, i'm no fan of interlace either, but my argument still stands that it could be used expressively -- in other words, to enhance the experience of the content for appropriate material. as an example, it might be a good choi

a grain effect added to a digital photo is a kind of affectation, an artifice that is not intimately connected to the process of making the image, included as a stylistic decision; possibly an afterthought. it seems dishonest (not necessarl

It doesn't hyphenate correctly. I get the word 'columns' hyphenated like this: 'colu-mns' and 'manuscript' as 'manuscri-pt'. A nice idea, but this implementation is unusable. Justification without correct hyphenation is just a non-starter.
