<r> (Text Run)

This element specifies a run of content in the parent field, hyperlink, custom XML element, structured document tag, smart tag, or paragraph.

The contents of a run in a WordprocessingML document shall consist of any combination of run content.

example: 
<w:document>
  <w:body>
    <w:p>
      <w:r>
        <w:t>Text</w:t>
      </w:r>
      <w:fldSimple w:instr="AUTHOR">
        <w:r>
          <w:t>Author Name</w:t>
        </w:r>
      </w:fldSimple>
    </w:p>
  </w:body>
</w:document>

The <r> element is the container for all of the content in the run, which in this example includes both a run in the paragraph and a run within a simple field. ]

Attributes

Description

<rsidDel> (Revision Identifier for Run Deletion)

Specifies a unique identifier used to track the editing session when the run was deleted from the main document.

All @rsid* attributes throughout this document with the same value, if present, must indicate that those regions were modified during the same editing session (time between subsequent save actions).

A producer may choose to increment the revision save ID value to indicate subsequent editing sessions to indicate the order of the modifications relative to other modifications in this document.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_LongHexNumber simple type (§2.18.57).

<rsidR> (Revision Identifier for Run)

Specifies a unique identifier used to track the editing session when the run was added to the main document.

All @rsid* attributes throughout this document with the same value, if present, must indicate that those regions were modified during the same editing session (time between subsequent save actions).

A producer may choose to increment the revision save ID value to indicate subsequent editing sessions to indicate the order of the modifications relative to other modifications in this document.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_LongHexNumber simple type (§2.18.57).

<rsidRPr> (Revision Identifier for Run Properties)

Specifies a unique identifier used to track the editing session when the run properties were last modified in the main document.

All @rsid* attributes throughout this document with the same value, if present, must indicate that those regions were modified during the same editing session (time between subsequent save actions).

A producer may choose to increment the revision save ID value to indicate subsequent editing sessions to indicate the order of the modifications relative to other modifications in this document.

The possible values for this attribute are defined by the ST_LongHexNumber simple type (§2.18.57).
