Which is fascinating, but I'm missing a key part. How do you handle spaces in one word? Ie what if the words in the two languages don't have the same length? I'd assume it'd start to look as "ugly" as the sliced english. And I looked but didn't notice any examples of it (although I don't read hebrew or arabic).


Someone should create a high-density programming font based on this principle.
