17.3.3.11 hpsBaseText

This element specifies the font size which shall be applied to the base text of this phonetic guide text when displayed. If this element disagrees with the run properties on the phonetic guide base text rubyBase element (17.3.3.27), then this property shall be ignored and the sz element (17.3.2.38) in that run shall determine the size of the phonetic guide base text.

[Example: Consider a run of phonetic guide base text which shall have an explicit font size of 30 points. This constraint is specified using the following WordprocessingML:

<w:rubyPr>
  …
  <w:hpsBaseText w:val="60"/>
  …
</w:rubyPr>

The hpsBaseText property is 60 half-points for the base text in this phonetic guide, so the phonetic guide base text is displayed in 30 point font size. end example]

Attributes

val (Half Point Measurement)

Specifies a positive measurement specified in half-points (1/144 of an inch).

The contents of this attribute value are interpreted based on the context of the parent XML element.

[Example: Consider the following WordprocessingML fragment:

  <… w:val="30" />

The value in the val attribute is 30, which is equivalent to 15 points (30 half-points).

This value is interpreted in the context of the parent element. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_HpsMeasure simple type (17.18.42).
