Rather than storing text on one long, continuous piece of papyrus, the codex was constructed of individual pieces of parchment, bound together on one side.

In no case should the resulting font size of any text drop below 85% of the page's default font size. The HTML <small>...</small> tag has a semantic meaning of fine print or side comments; [2] do not use it for stylistic changes. For use of small text for authority names with binomials, see § Scientific names.
Despite his desire to keep the program stable, Knuth realized that 128 different characters for the text input were not enough to accommodate foreign languages; the main change in version 3.0 of TeX is thus the ability to work with 8-bit inputs, allowing 256 different characters in the text input. TeX3.0 was released on March 15, 1990.
The article French spacing says that printing presses used wedges for spaces to automatically justify text. That should be here.
