11.3.5 Font Table Part

Content Type:

application/vnd.openxmlformats-officedocument.wordprocessingml.fontTable+xml

Root Namespace:

http://purl.oclc.org/ooxml/wordprocessingml/main

Source Relationship:

http://purl.oclc.org/ooxml/officeDocument/relationships/fontTable

An instance of this part type contains information about each of the fonts used by content in the document. When a consumer reads a WordprocessingML document, it shall use this information to determine which fonts to use to display the document when the specified fonts are not available on the consumer’s system.

A package shall contain no more than two Font Table parts. If it exists, one instance of that part shall be the target of an implicit relationship in the part-relationship item for the Main Document (11.3.10) part, and the other instance shall be the target of an implicit relationship from the Glossary Document (11.3.8) part.

[Example: The following Main Document part-relationship item contains a relationship to the Font Table part, which is stored as the ZIP item fontTable.xml:

<Relationships xmlns="…">
  <Relationship Id="rId1"
    Type="http://…/fontTable" Target="fontTable.xml"/>
</Relationships>

end example]

The root element for a part of this content type shall be fonts.

[Example:

<w:fonts  >
  <w:font w:name="Calibri">
    <w:panose1 w:val="020F0502020204030204"/>
    <w:charset w:val="00"/>
    <w:family w:val="swiss"/>
    <w:pitch w:val="variable"/>
    <w:sig w:usb0="A00002EF" w:usb1="4000207B" w:usb2="00000000"
      w:usb3="00000000" w:csb0="0000009F" w:csb1="00000000"/>
  </w:font>
</w:fonts>

end example]

A Font Table part shall be located within the package containing the relationships part (expressed syntactically, the TargetMode attribute of the Relationship element shall be Internal).

A Font Table part is permitted to contain explicit relationships to the following parts defined by ISO/IEC 29500:

A Font Table part shall not have any implicit or explicit relationships to any other part defined by ISO/IEC 29500.
