   The text doesn't fit into the height you have given the box.
   (Not everyone uses the same font-size as you.)

   The spacing on the justified text is made worse because you have
   contrained the width; if it were allowed to expand to fill the
   window, more words would fit on a line and there wouldn't be such
   large interword spacing.
