rPr (Run Properties for the Paragraph Mark)

This element specifies the set of run properties applied to the glyph used to represent the physical location of the paragraph mark for this paragraph. This paragraph mark, being a physical character in the document, can be formatted, and therefore must be capable of representing this formatting like any other character in the document.

If this element is not present, the paragraph mark is unformatted, as with any other run of text.

[Example: Consider a run of text displayed as follows, including a display format using the pilcrow sign ¶ for the paragraph mark glyph:

This is some text and the paragraph mark.¶

If we format the display formatting for the paragraph mark by making it red and giving it a 72 point font size, then the WordprocessingML shall reflect this formatting on the paragraph as follows:

<w:pPr>

<w:rPr>

<w:color w:val="FF0000" />

<w:sz w:val="144" />

</w:rPr>

</w:pPr>

The paragraph glyph's formatting is stored in the rPr element under the paragraph properties, since there is no run saved for the paragraph mark itself. end example]
