<ST_VerticalAlignRun> (Vertical Alignment Run Types)

Defines the possible settings for vertical alignment of a run of text. This is used to get superscript or subscript text without altering the font size properties of the rest of the text run.

example: 
<rPr>
  <vertAlign val="subscript"/>
</rPr>

The above example shows a run which shall be positioning as subscript when displaying its contents. The resulting run is positioned as subscript, therefore it is rendered in a smaller size below the default baseline location for the contents of the run.

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

The following are possible enumeration values for this type:
