It seems that the best approach for Chinese translations would be to:

- add spaces at sentence or word breaks in translations before 35 or 45 bytes, 
if that is the length unit, worth of characters are output in each column; or

- add a language dependent line breaking strategy, to honour characters not to 
be placed at the beginning or ends of lines or split; or

- split between characters, as with long strings in other languages.
