Justification is how the text is aligned. Left justified has text aligned on the left margin (right margin ragged); right justified has text aligned on the right margin (left margin ragged); full justification has text aligned on both margins.

If done correctly, I prefer full justification. The reading apps on my iPod are all set to full justification, but the results are sometimes just as "ugly" as a ragged right margin.

With hyphenation turned off, you might get large white spaces between words. Or with hyphenation, you might get incorrectly hyphenated words...
