Although even on paper typography can only approximate the expressiveness of calligraphy, no? But you give me lots to think about there. One of the editions of the Tao Te Ching I looked at yesterday advertised its hand-drawn Chinese characters, although they were pretty much purely ornamental -- i.e., single characters out of a single verse. It didn't even occur to me to be interested in that.
