2.6.2 Paragraph Properties

  • Article

A Prl with a sprm.sgc of 1 modifies a paragraph property.

The following table specifies the paragraph property modifiers, including the valid sprm values, their function, and the corresponding operand type and meaning.

sprm

ispmd

Operand

sprmPIstd

(0x4600)

0x00

An unsigned integer that specifies the istd of a paragraph style to apply.

To apply the istd, fetch the complete set of paragraph and character properties from that style. (See Applying Properties for instructions.) Apply those properties to the current paragraph, while preserving the previous values of the following:

  • Whether the paragraph is a Table Terminating Paragraph Mark (for example, by sprmPFTtp). (See Overview of Tables).

  • Whether the paragraph is in a table (for example, by sprmPFInTable).

  • The table depth of the paragraph (for example, by sprmPItap).

  • Whether the paragraph is the final paragraph in a nested table cell (for example, by sprmPFInnerTableCell).

  • The table style applied to the paragraph (for example, by sprmTIstd).

  • The ipgpSelf value of the PGPInfo data that is applied to the paragraph (for example, by sprmPIpgp).

  • Paragraph properties that have been preserved for revision marking (for example, by sprmPWall) See sprmPWall for the meaning of revision marking.

  • The revision save ID that is associated with the paragraph (for example, by sprmPRsid), as specified in [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.15.1.70.

  • Whether the paragraph has an associated property revision mark, as well as its author and the date and time (for example, by sprmPPropRMark).

  • The numbering revision mark for the paragraph (for example, by sprmPNumRM).

  • Whether a numbered list was applied to the paragraph after the previous revision (for example, by sprmPFNumRMIns).

An istd value in the range of 1 to 9, inclusive, also specifies the outline level of the paragraph (for example, by sprmPOutLvl), where the new outline level is equal to the value of the istd minus 1.

If an istd value refers to an empty or nonexistent style, or to a style of a different type, a later Prl such as sprmPIstd or sprmPIstdPermute MUST change the istd to a valid value. Applying an istd that refers to an empty or nonexistent style, or to a style of a different type, is equivalent to applying the paragraph and character document default formatting (while preserving the same set of properties as when applying an istd.)

By default, the paragraph style is unchanged.

sprmPIstdPermute

(0xC601)

0x01

A SPPOperand value that specifies a potential change in the current paragraph style (istd).

If the istd is not affected, this Prl MUST be ignored.

If the istd is affected, this sprm is equivalent to sprmPIstd with the operand being the new istd.

sprmPIncLvl

(0x2602)

0x02

A signed 8-bit integer value. If the paragraph has an istd that is greater than or equal to 0x0001 and less than or equal to 0x0009, this value specifies an offset to the istd of the paragraph. If this value offsets the istd of the paragraph beyond one of the limits 0x0001 or 0x0009, then the istd of the paragraph is set to that limit. See Determining Formatting Properties for information about how to determine the istd of the paragraph.

If the istd of the paragraph is not within the range that was specified earlier, this value specifies an offset to the outline level of the paragraph, unless the outline level of the paragraph is equal to 0x09, in which case this value MUST be ignored. If this offset adjusts the outline level beyond one of the limits 0x00 or 0x09, than the outline level of the paragraph is set to that limit. See sprmPOutLvl for the outline level of the paragraph.

sprmPJc80

(0x2403)

0x03

An unsigned 8-bit integer that specifies the physical justification of the paragraph. This MUST be one of the following values.

0 - Paragraph is physically left justified.

1 - Paragraph is centered.

2 - Paragraph is physically right justified.

3 - Paragraph is justified to both right and left with a low character compression ratio.

4 - Paragraph is justified to both right and left with a medium character compression ratio.

5 - Paragraph is justified to both right and left with a high character compression ratio.

By default, paragraphs are physically left-justified.

sprmPFKeep

(0x2405)

0x05

sprmPFKeepFollow

(0x2406)

0x06

A Bool8 value that specifies whether an application SHOULD<149> keep the end of this paragraph on the same page as the beginning of the next paragraph. By default, adjacent paragraphs are allowed to be on separate pages.

sprmPFPageBreakBefore

(0x2407)

0x07

A Bool8 value that specifies whether this paragraph has a page break before it. 

By default, paragraphs do not have page breaks before them.

sprmPIlvl

(0x260A)

0x0A

An unsigned 8-bit integer that specifies the list level of the paragraph. This value MUST be ignored if this paragraph is not in a list (see sprmPIlfo). This value MUST be one of the following:

0x0 - 0x8

The value specifies the zero-based level of the list that contains this paragraph. For example, a value of 0x0 means that the paragraph is in the first level of the list.

0xC

The list skips this paragraph and does not include it in its numbering.

By default, a paragraph is in the first level of the list.

sprmPIlfo

(0x460B)

0x0B

A 16-bit signed integer value that is used to determine which list contains the paragraph. This value MUST be one of the following:

0x0000

This paragraph is not in a list, and any list formatting on the paragraph is removed.

0x0001 - 0x07FE

The value is a 1-based index into PlfLfo.rgLfo. The LFO at this index defines the list that this paragraph is in.

0xF801

This paragraph is not in a list.

0xF802 - 0xFFFF

The value is the negation of a 1-based index into PlfLfo.rgLfo. The LFO at this index defines the list that this paragraph is in. The logical left indentation (see sprmPDxaLeft) and the logical left first line indentation (see sprmPDxaLeft1) of the paragraph MUST be preserved despite any list formatting.

By default, a paragraph is not in a list.

0x0 - 0x8

The value is the zero-based outline level that this paragraph is in.

0x9

The paragraph at any outline level; instead, the paragraph is body text.

This MUST be ignored if the paragraph has an istd that is greater than or equal to 0x1 and less than or equal to 0x9. By default, paragraphs are body text, and are therefore not in any outline level.

sprmPFBiDi

(0x2441)

The cbGrpprl member of the referenced PrcData structure MUST NOT be less than 10. If an application processes this PrcData, then it MUST NOT process any more Prl elements in the array that contained the sprmPHugePapx.

If a Prl with a sprm of sprmPHugePapx is in an array of Prl elements and is not the first element of the array, then that Prl MUST be ignored. If a Prl with a sprm of sprmPHugePapx is contained in the grpprl array of a GrpPrlAndIstd structure, then it MUST be the only Prl in that array and the istd member of that GrpPrlAndIstd structure MUST be zero.

0x4B

A Bool8 value that specifies whether this paragraph is the final paragraph in a nested table cell.

When true, the nesting level of this paragraph MUST be greater than 1, indicating that this paragraph is in a table which is nested within another table.

When true, this is the last paragraph of a nested table cell and its paragraph mark is treated as if it were an end of cell mark. By default, paragraphs are not the last paragraph of a nested table cell. See the Overview of Tables (section 2.4.3) for more information about nested tables.

sprmPFInnerTtp

(0x244C)

An unsigned 8-bit integer value that specifies the logical justification of the paragraph. The value MUST be one of those listed following. Some of the values also correspond to the ST_Jc enumeration values that are specified in [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.18.50 ST_Jc (Horizontal Alignment Type).

0

St_Jc: left

Paragraph is logical left justified

1

St_Jc: center

Paragraph is centered

2

St_Jc: right

Paragraph is logical right justified

3

St_Jc: both

Paragraph is justified to both right and left

4

St_Jc:distribute

Paragraph characters are distributed to fill the entire width of the paragraph

5

St_Jc: mediumKashida

If the language is Arabic, the paragraph uses medium-length Kashida. In other languages, text is justified with a medium character compression ratio.

6

Paragraph is indented

7

St_Jc: highKashida

If the language is Arabic, the paragraph uses longer length Kashida. In other languages, text is justified with a high character compression ratio.

8

St_Jc: lowKashida

If the language is Arabic, the paragraph uses small length Kashida. In other languages, text is justified with a high character compression ratio.

9

St_Jc:thaiDistribute

If the language of the paragraph is Thai, the text is justified with Thai distributed justification. In other languages, text is justified with a low character compression ratio.

The default is logical left justification.

sprmPFNoAllowOverlap

(0x2462)

0x62

A Bool8 value that specifies whether the frame of this paragraph can overlap with other frames. A value of 1 specifies that frames MUST NOT overlap. By default, frames can overlap with other frames.

sprmPWall

(0x2664)

0x64

A Bool8 value that specifies whether the values of paragraph properties are preserved for revision marking purposes until the modifications are accepted or rejected by the user.

A value of 1 specifies that the property values were preserved. All SPRMs that are encountered before the sprmPWall in the property evaluation of the paragraph specify the state of properties before revision marking was enabled, whereas all SPRMs following the sprmPWall specify the property modifications that occur after revision marking was enabled.

A value of 0 specifies that no values were preserved (overriding any previously encountered sprmPWall SPRMs that specify the contrary). Neither SPRMs that were encountered before the sprmPWall, nor subsequent SPRMs (until another sprmPWall, if any), are treated in any special way with regard to revision marking.

By default, property values are not preserved.

sprmPIpgp

(0x6465)

0x65

An unsigned integer value that specifies the PGPInfo.ipgpSelf value of the PGPInfo data that is applied to this paragraph. The table depth of the paragraph (see Overview of Tables) MUST match PGPInfo.itap unless the paragraph is a table terminating mark, in which case PGPInfo.itap MUST be 1 less than the paragraph table depth.

PGPInfo.ipgpSelf values MUST NOT be applied in such a way as to break the hierarchy that is implied by the PGPInfo structures themselves. Given that the application of a particular PGPInfo.ipgpSelf value implies the application of all of the PGPInfo.ipgpParent values that are encountered by ascending the PGPInfo chain, ensuring that all occurrences of any PGPInfo.ipgpSelf are on adjacent paragraphs of the same table depth ensures that the hierarchy is not broken.

By default, a paragraph has no associated PGPInfo.

sprmPCnf

(0xC666)

0x66

A CNFOperand value that specifies conditional paragraph formatting for a specific condition of a table style. The grpprl member of the CNFOperand value specifies the paragraph formatting properties and MUST NOT contain any Sprms that are disallowed in the grpprlPapx member of UpxPapx.

This sprm MUST only be specified within the grpprlPapx member of a UpxPapx within a table style definition (LPStd).

By default, a table style definition does not include conditional formatting.

sprmPRsid

(0x6467)

0x67

An integer value that specifies a revision save ID, as specified in [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.15.1.70 rsid (Single Session Revision Save ID), associated with paragraph formatting. If not present, then no revision save ID is specified for this formatting.

sprmPIstdListPermute

(0xC669)

0x69

An SPPOperand value that has no effect and MUST be ignored.

sprmPTableProps

(0x646B)

0x6B

An unsigned integer value that specifies a location in the Data Stream. A PrcData structure begins at this offset and specifies additional properties for the paragraph. The cbGrpprl member of the referenced PrcData structure MUST NOT be less than 10. If an application processes this PrcData structure, then it MUST NOT process anymore Prl elements in the array that contained the sprmPTableProps value. SprmPHugePapx and sprmPTableProps values can refer to PrcData structures containing each other, but the chain MUST eventually terminate in a PrcData that contains neither sprmPHugePapx nor sprmPTableProps.

sprmPTIstdInfo

(0xC66C)

0x6C

A PTIstdInfoOperand value that has no effect and MUST be ignored.

sprmPFContextualSpacing

(0x246D)

0x6D

A Bool8 value that specifies whether contextual spacing is enabled for this paragraph. A value of 0x01 specifies that any space before this paragraph (sprmPDyaBefore) MUST be ignored if the preceding paragraph is of the same paragraph style and any space after this paragraph (sprmPDyaAfter) MUST be ignored if the following paragraph is of the same paragraph style. By default, paragraphs do not use contextual spacing.

sprmPPropRMark

(0xC66F)

0x6F

A PropRMarkOperand value that specifies whether the paragraph has an associated property revision mark, as well as its author and the date and time. By default, paragraphs have no property revision marks.

sprmPFMirrorIndents

(0x2470)

0x70

A Bool8 value that specifies whether the left and right indents that are set for this paragraph are interpreted as inside and outside margins for odd and even numbered pages. For specifications of the display behavior, see [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.3.1.18 mirrorIndents (use Left/Right Indents as Inside/Outside Indents). By default, paragraph indents are not swapped.

sprmPTtwo

(0x2471)

0x71

A 1-byte integer that specifies text wrapping options for a text box when tight wrapping is set for the text box. This option is the same as [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.3.1.40 textboxTightWrap (Allow Surrounding Paragraphs to Tight Wrap to Text Box Contents)

The value MUST be one of the following, which correspond to values specified in [ECMA-376] Part 4, Section 2.18.99 ST_TextboxTightWrap (Lines To Tight Wrap Within Text Box).

0x00

ST_TextboxTightWrap: none

No lines of the paragraph allow the surrounding text to tightly wrap around their edges.

0x01

ST_TextboxTightWrap: allLines

All lines of the paragraph allow the surrounding text to tightly wrap to their edges.

0x02

ST_TextboxTightWrap: firstAndLastLine

Only the first and last lines of the paragraph allow the surrounding text to tightly wrap around their edges.

0x03

ST_TextboxTightWrap: firstLineOnly

Only the first line of the paragraph allows the surrounding text to tightly wrap around its edges.

0x04

ST_TextboxTightWrap: lastLineOnly

Only the last line of the paragraph allows the surrounding text to tightly wrap around its edges.

By default, the surrounding text is not allowed to tightly wrap to the edges of the lines of a paragraph in a textbox.
