Even though full justification may not be as good for reading comprehension, it is still the standard for most of the books I work on.   

Why? 

I find that not being able to do a forced return and preserve the justification is a major (and almost unbelievable) limitation of Framemaker. I have been highlighting the line up to the point where I want to make the break, then spreading it "by hand," using spread and word spacing.   

Also, why all the hand-tweaking? Sounds pretty inefficient. Maybe InDesign or Quark might be more up your alley, in terms of workflow. 

Cheers, 

Sean
