Run level formatting is the most granular property level and allows for the specifying of all low level text properties. The text run is what all paragraphs are derived from and thus specifying various properties per run will allow for a diversely formatted text paragraph.

[Example: Consider the case where have multiple runs within a paragraph and you wish to apply bold to only one of them without having to split up the text into higher level XML groups. To do this we would simply apply the bold run property to the text run that we wish to format as shown below.

<a:r>
…
</a:r>

<a:r>
<a:rPr lang="en-US" b="1" dirty="0" smtClean="0"/>
<a:t>This text will be bold</a:t>
</a:r>

<a:r>
…
</a:r>

end example]

cs (Complex Script Font)

<a:cs typeface="Sample Font"/>
</a:rPr>
<a:t>Sample Text</a:t>

[Example: Consider the DrawingML shown below. <a:p> … <a:rPr b="1"/> … <a:t>Some Text</a:t> … </a:p> The above run of text will be formatted as bold text. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
baseline (Baseline)	Specifies the baseline for both the superscript and subscript fonts. The size is specified using a percentage where 1000 is equal to 1 percent of the font size and 100000 is equal to 100 percent font of the font size. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_Percentage simple type (§5.1.12.41).
bmk (Bookmark Link Target)	Specifies the link target name that is used to reference to the proper link properties in a custom XML part within the document. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema string datatype.
cap (Capitalization)	Specifies the capitalization that is to be applied to the text run. This is a render-only modification and does not affect the actual characters stored in the text run. This attribute is also distinct from the toggle function where the actual characters stored in the text run are changed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextCapsType simple type (§5.1.12.64).
dirty (Dirty)	Specifies that the content of a text run has changed since the proofing tools have last been run. Effectively this flags text that must be checked again by the generating application for mistakes such as spelling, grammar, etc. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
err (Spelling Error)	Specifies that when this run of text was checked for spelling, grammar, etc. that a mistake was indeed found. This allows the generating application to effectively save the state of the mistakes within the document instead of having to perform a full pass check upon opening the document. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
i (Italics)	Specifies whether a run of text will be formatted as italic text. If this attribute is omitted, than a value of 0, or false is assumed. [Example: Consider the DrawingML shown below. <a:p> … <a:rPr i="1"/> … <a:t>Some Text</a:t> … </a:p> The above run of text will be formatted as italic text. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.

If this attribute is omitted, than a value of 0, or false is assumed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
lang (Language ID)	Specifies the language to be used when the generating application is displaying the user interface controls. If this attribute is omitted, than the generating application may select a language of its choice. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextLanguageID simple type (§5.1.12.72).
noProof (No Proofing)	Specifies that a run of text has been selected by the user to not be checked for mistakes. Therefore if there are spelling, grammar, etc mistakes within this text the generating application should ignore them. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
normalizeH (Normalize Heights)	Specifies the normalization of height that is to be applied to the text run. This is a render-only modification and does not affect the actual characters stored in the text run.

If this attribute is omitted, than a value of 0, or false is assumed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
smtId (SmartTag ID)	Specifies the reference id for the smart tag. This id corresponds to a link within this slides relationship file. The following of this link within the relationship file will result in the actual smart tag information for this piece of text. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema unsignedInt datatype.
spc (Spacing)	Specifies the spacing between characters within a text run. This spacing is specified numerically and should be consistently applied across the entire run of text by the generating application. Whole points are specified in increments of 100 starting with 100 being a point size of 1. For instance a font point size of 12 would be 1200 and a font point size of 12.5 would be 1250.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextLanguageID simple type (§5.1.12.72).
noProof (No Proofing)	Specifies that a run of text has been selected by the user to not be checked for mistakes. Therefore if there are spelling, grammar, etc mistakes within this text the generating application should ignore them. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
normalizeH (Normalize Heights)	Specifies the normalization of height that is to be applied to the text run. This is a render-only modification and does not affect the actual characters stored in the text run. This attribute is also distinct from the toggle function where the actual characters stored in the text run are changed. If this attribute is omitted, than a value of 0, or false will be assumed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
smtClean (SmartTag Clean)	Specifies whether or not a text run has been checked for smart tags. This attribute acts much like the dirty attribute dose for the checking of spelling, grammar, etc. A value of true here indicates to the generating application that this text run should be checked for smart tags. If this attribute is omitted, than a value of 0, or false is assumed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema boolean datatype.
smtId (SmartTag ID)	Specifies the reference id for the smart tag. This id corresponds to a link within this slides relationship file. The following of this link within the relationship file will result in the actual smart tag information for this piece of text. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the XML Schema unsignedInt datatype.
spc (Spacing)	Specifies the spacing between characters within a text run. This spacing is specified numerically and should be consistently applied across the entire run of text by the generating application. Whole points are specified in increments of 100 starting with 100 being a point size of 1. For instance a font point size of 12 would be 1200 and a font point size of 12.5 would be 1250. If this attribute is omitted than a value of 0 or no adjustment is assumed. The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextPoint simple type (§5.1.12.75).
strike (Strikethrough)	Specifies whether a run of text will be formatted as strikethrough text. If this attribute is omitted, than no strikethrough is assumed. [Example: Consider the DrawingML shown below. <a:p> … <a:rPr strike="sngStrike"/> … <a:t>Some Text</a:t> … </a:p> The above run of text will be formatted as single strikethrough text. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextStrikeType simple type (§5.1.12.79).
sz (Font Size)	Specifies the size of text within a text run. Whole points are specified in increments of 100 starting with 100 being a point size of 1. For instance a font point size of 12 would be 1200 and a font point size of 12.5 would be 1250. If this attribute is omitted, than the value in defRPr should be used. [Example: Consider the DrawingML shown below. <a:p> … <a:rPr sz="1200"/> … <a:t>Some Text</a:t> … </a:p> The above run of text will be formatted with a 12 point text size. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextFontSize simple type (§5.1.12.68).
u (Underline)	Specifies whether a run of text will be formatted as underlined text. If this attribute is omitted, than no underline is assumed. [Example: Consider the DrawingML shown below. <a:p> … <a:rPr u="sng"/> … <a:t>Some Text</a:t> … </a:p> The above run of text will be formatted as single underline text. end example] The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_TextUnderlineType simple type (§5.1.12.82).
