ABSTRACT:
Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implementing and using techniques for controlling forced grid line spacing. The height of text consisting of a plurality of characters to be arranged within a current line in a grid displayed on a display device is determined. If the height of the text is larger than a specified dimension for the grid, an arrangement region that includes the current line and at least one subsequent line is demarcated. A coordination line within the arrangement region according to a selected coordination mode is set and the plurality of characters is arranged within the arrangement region while coordinating the plurality of characters with the coordination line. This provides an electronic typesetting technology that can automatically and swiftly perform forced grid line spacing without requiring complicated manual operations by the user.
