17.3.2.21 noProof

This element specifies that the contents of this run shall not report any errors when the document is scanned for spelling and grammar. [Note: It is entirely at the consumer’s/producer’s discretion whether this is done by not checking the region for spelling and grammar, or simply by suppressing the results. end note]

If this element is not present, the default value is to leave the formatting applied at previous level in the style hierarchy. If this element is never applied in the style hierarchy, then spelling and grammar error shall not be suppressed on the contents of this run.

[Example: Consider a run of text which must not ever have spelling or grammar errors reported for the contents of the run, for example, the XML fragments included in ISO/IEC 29500. This constraint is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:rPr>
  <w:noProof w:val="true"/>
</w:rPr>

This run explicitly declares that the noProof property is true, so the contents of this run never report spelling or grammar errors. end example]

This element’s content model is defined by the common boolean property definition in 17.17.4.
