17.18.95 ST_TextScale

This simple type specifies that the percentage by which the contents of a run shall be expanded or compressed with respect to its normal (100%) character width, with a minimum width of 1% and maximum width of 600%.

[Example: Consider a run of text which must be compressed by half when displaying each character within the contents of the run. This constraint is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:rPr>
  <w:w w:val="50%"/>
</w:rPr>

This run explicitly declares that the w value is 50%, so the contents of this run appear at 50% of their normal character width by compressing the width of each character. end example]

This simple type is a union of the following types:

  • The ST_TextScalePercent simple type (A.1).

[Note: The W3C XML Schema definition of this simple type’s content model (ST_TextScale) is located in A.1. end note]
