ST_TextAlignment (Vertical Text Alignment Types)

This simple type specifies the type of vertical alignment which shall be used to align the characters on each line in the parent object.

[Example: Consider a paragraph of text of different font sizes, as follows:

If the text on this paragraph shall be aligned based on the top point of the maximum character height, that requirement would be specified as follows in the WordprocessingML:

<w:pPr>

<w:textAlignment w:val="top" />

</w:pPr>

The resulting text would be top aligned, as follows:

The characters are all aligned to the maximum character extent on the line. end example]
