22.1.2.51 jc

This element specifies justification of the math paragraph (a series of adjacent instances of mathematical text within the same paragraph). A math paragraph can be Left Justified, Right Justified, Centered, or Centered as Group. If this element is omitted, the math paragraph is Centered as Group. Whether the element is absent or present without the val attribute, the default of the val attribute is centerGroup. This means that the instances of mathematical text can be aligned with respect to each other, but the entire group of mathematical text is centered as a whole. [Example: An example of Centered as Group is the following example, in which each equation is left-aligned, but the series is centered:

The XML that demonstrates jc in use is:

<m:oMathParaPr>
  <m:jc m:val="centerGroup"/>
</m:oMathParaPr>

end example]
