What's the difference between Chinese typesetting and western typesetting?

The horizontal arrangement from the left is called western typesetting.

The vertical arrangement from the right is called Chinese typesetting.

Chinese and western parallel typesetting standards.

But there are many kinds of typesetting, such as Chinese envelope typesetting and western envelope typesetting, which are not only general principles, but also some subdivision principles. The scope of your question is too wide and too big.

******************************************************

Pure Chinese typesetting, the words start from the right and then are arranged vertically, with more white space around the words. In the eyes of China people, they are more bookish.

Western-style typesetting, the words start from the left and then typeset horizontally (as we see books and newspapers now). Typesetting is very common in the world now. Another difference between Chinese and western typesetting is punctuation. Chinese punctuation is used for pure Chinese typesetting and western punctuation is used for western typesetting. For example, some western works ~ this is the difference between Chinese and western typesetting in newspapers.

******************************************************

Magazines and newspapers are almost the same (referring to the typesetting of words), the only difference is that western-style picture placement pays more attention to neatness and western artistic aesthetics than Chinese ones. Chinese magazines are mostly one page and one picture. Even if the remaining space is large, they will not be put more (not discussed under special circumstances). Chinese magazine's label is usually right below the picture. Pictures in western-style magazines don't have to be marked with words, and the descriptions of pictures are generally reflected in words!
