Re: Word text boundaries
I'm looking at a document I recieved when I first started my job here^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
a few weeks ago which I tweaked and used as a model for others (it's a
resume). When I turn on 'text boundaries', much of the text is pushed
way out of the right boundary. It prints, but now where I thought it
looked "OK" I am thinking it looks crappy.
What si the use fo the 'text boundary if you can easily place/run text
outside of it? Just a suggestion? Most of the stuff I've turned up
while searching has been about how to turn text boundaries on and off,
and says 'it's really useful!', but doesn't explain HOW it's useful.
An example (titled 'using text boundaries'):

What *is* it used for? Should I never run text outside fo the boundary?
