printFractionalCharacterWidth (Print Fractional Character Widths)

This element specifies the contents of this document shall be printed with fractional character widths. Fractional character widths exist when the spacing between characters is not constant (i.e. a proportional font face is used).

[Note: Fractional character widths are generally used in conjunction with large font sizes to prevent characters from running together or having too much space between one another. end note]

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document which should be printed using fractional character widths as needed. This requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML markup in the document settings:

<w:printFractionalCharacterWidth w:val="true"/>

The printFractionalCharacterWidth element's val attribute is equal to true, specifying that fractional character widths may be used as necessary. end example]

Attributes

Description

val (On/Off Value)

Specifies a binary value for the property defined by the parent XML element.

A value of on, 1, or true specifies that the property shall be explicitly applied. This is the default value for this attribute, and is implied when the parent element is present, but this attribute is omitted.

A value of off, 0, or false specifies that the property shall be explicitly turned off.

[Example: For example, consider the following on/off property:

<w:… w:val="off"/>

The val attribute explicitly declares that the property is turned off. end example]

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_OnOff simple type (§2.18.67).
