<ST_PageBorderOffset> (Page Border Positioning Base)

This simple type specifies how the relative positioning of the page borders shall be calculated.

If the value of this attribute is text, then the @space attribute on each page border shall be interpreted as the distance from the text margins that shall be left before the page border.

example: 
<w:pgBorders w:offsetFrom="page">
  <w:top w:val="dashed" w:space="24" />
  <w:left w:val="dashed" w:space="24" />
  <w:bottom w:val="dashed" w:space="24"/>
  <w:right w:val="dashed" w:space="24"/>
</w:pgBorders>

This fragment specifies that the page borders shall be indented 24 points from the page extents.

This is distinct from the following fragment with identical @space attribute values:

<w:pgBorders w:offsetFrom="text">
  <w:top w:val="dashed" w:space="24" />
  <w:left w:val="dashed" w:space="24" />
  <w:bottom w:val="dashed" w:space="24"/>
  <w:right w:val="dashed" w:space="24"/>
</w:pgBorders>

In this case, the page borders will be offset by 24 points, but in this case, that offset will be calculated relative to the text margins. ]

This simple type's contents are a restriction of the XML Schema string datatype.

Description

<page> (Page Border Is Positioned Relative to Page Edges)

Specifies that the @space attribute on each page border shall be interpreted as the distance from the edge of the page that shall be left before the page border.

<text> (Page Border Is Positioned Relative to Text Extents)

Specifies that the @space attribute on each page border shall be interpreted as the distance from the edge of the text extents (text margins) that shall be left before the page border..
