Re: [clreq] Best line length (#555)

> 基于下述理由,行长必须为文字尺寸的整数倍:

Due to the following reasons, the line length must be an integral multiple of the font size.

> 1. 中文排版的基本原则是,除段落最后一行以外,每行行尾应对齐
> 2. 中文排版所用的文字(包括汉字、标点),其字框的设计原则是正方形
> 3. 中文排版的排字原则是,文字应为密排

1. The basic principle of Chinese typesetting is, with the exception of the last line of a paragraph, the end of every line should be aligned with each other.
2. All characters used in Chinese typesetting (including Han characters and punctuation) are square characters
3. Characters in Chinese typesetting are set solid

> 作为总体原则,行长应依照不同字体、版式、成品尺寸以及媒介种类、根据实际情况设置。一般来说,报纸期刊的行长相对较短,而书籍的行长较长,但作为参考值,大多数书籍的正文行长一般设在 17 到 40 字范围区间。为避免阅读时频繁换行、串行等情况,正文行长最小不宜少于 10 字、而横排最大行长不宜长于 48 字、竖排不宜长于 55 字。

As a basic principle, the line length should be set according to the actual conditions where the type is being set, which could be usage of  different fonts, formatting structures, product sizing or media types. Generally, the line length for newspapers and periodicals are relatively shorter, while the line length for books are longer. For the sake of reference, most books have line lengths of body text in the range between 17 to 40 characters. To prevent excessive line breaks that could cause difficultyin reading, the line length of body text should not be less than 10 characters. For horizontal writing mode, the line length of body copy should not exceed 48 characters. For vertical writing mode, the line length of body copy should not exceed 55 characters.
