If writing is squeezed into the bottom of the page, it may also mean there is an inability to plan or anticipate well.
Spacing
After margins, there are three more spatial factors to consider: the space between the lines, the space between the words, and the space between letters in a word.

Word Spacing
Spacing between words tells us much about your personal space in regard to other people—are you easygoing or a little restrained? It also reflects your speech patterns—if a writer pauses to breathe or speeds up when talking, the flow of his or her words on paper will often mirror that individual’s speech.
