printPostScriptOverText (Print PostScript Codes With Document Text)

This element specifies that the PostScript codes specified in WordprocessingML documents containing PRINT fields shall be included in foreground (on the same Z-order as text) with the data printed in the contents of a given WordprocessingML document.

[Note: This setting is maintained to ensure compatibility of legacy word processing documents. The PRINT field should not be used in lieu of newer technologies in this Office Open XML Standard. end note]

If this element is omitted, then the contents of PRINT fields shall be printed behind text (i.e. in the background).

[Example: Consider a WordprocessingML document containing PRINT fields whose PostScript code shall be printed in the foreground of the WordprocessingML document. This requirement is specified using the following WordprocessingML in the document settings:

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

The printPostScriptOverText element's val attribute is equal to true specifying that the PostScript codes shall be treated as results for the main text level of the document (i.e. not behind that text). end example]

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).
