    Chihad, the width of the column was intentionally reduced to control line length and increase readability. Increase the column width would mean increasing the type to the aforementioned clown-size.

        I was about to ask if there is any research about the article he posted but you came in the right time. Thanks, I always felt like about 100 cpl is more easier to read.
