Uneven right side in fully justified paragraph
Hi,
In the paragraph in the attached screenshot, when printed the right side doesn't look entirely even. Are the soft returns or something else causing this? How can this be resolved? Thanks!

There was extra space after the periods in your screenshsot, some other letters also. More important is what exactly you like to see better on your type.
Wanted you to try another font to see every font is programmed differently, especially on finer details, which are sometimes improved on version updates.

Roman Hanging Punctuation (Notice the periods after minutes and sun hang over the edge in my previous screenshot)
Controls the alignment of punctuation marks for a specific paragraph. When Roman Hanging Punctuation is turned on, the following characters appear 100% outside the margins: single quotes, double quotes, hyphens, periods, and commas; the following characters appear 50% outside the margins: asterisks, tildes, ellipses, en dashes, em dashes, colons, semicolons. To apply this setting, insert the cursor in the paragraph and select Roman Hanging Punctuation from the Paragraph panel menu.
Optical Margin Alignment
Controls the alignment of punctuation marks for all paragraphs within a type object. When Optical Margin Alignment is turned on, roman punctuation marks as well as the edges of letters (such as W and A) hang outside the text margins so that the type looks aligned. To apply this setting, select the type object and choose Type > Optical Margin Alignment.
