Posts: 1746 		I am having a problem with fully justified text using the Font Manager.

I am using Font_ScanString to break lines at space characters. I pass the returned value into Font_Paint, setting the "Given length" flag. I also wish to fully-justify the text so I set the "Justify" flag also.

This is where the problem arises: The text is cut at the correct place but is not justified correctly. It seems that the Font Manager does not take into consideration the R7 length value when calculating the justification word-spacing.

Can anybody tell me what I am doing wrong?

Posts: 2 		Which of the methods of justification are you using (bit 0 or bit 5 set)? Can you post the code?
