ST_VerticalJc (Vertical Alignment Type)
This simple type specifies the vertical alignment for text between the top and bottom margins of the parent container (page or table cell).
[Example: Consider a region where the text shall be vertically centered in the parent element. This would require a val value of center, in order to specify that all justification vertically shall be centered relative to the parent. For a section, this setting would be specified as follows:
<w:vAlign w:val="center" />
The val attribute of center specifies that the content is centered relative to its container . end example]
This simple type's contents are a restriction of the XML Schema string datatype.
The following are possible enumeration values for this type:
