Wordprocessing and PDF components
WPTools offers excellent support for paragraph styles, such as 'Headline1,' which are widely recognized features in major word processing programs. Thanks to the modern code, each attribute of a character or paragraph can be set to "undefined." If an attribute is undefined, it can be defined by an element with lower priority, allowing for inherited attributes. This approach is similar to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), which are used with HTML files.
The integration of this feature into the architecture of WPTools 5 has proven beneficial for style support. The new method for storing attributes allows each attribute to be set as "undefined." When an attribute is undefined, it can be determined by a lower priority element. Therefore, any attributes that are undefined in a paragraph are drawn from the attached style or the base style associated with that style. This concept applies to characters, paragraphs, tables, and even text blocks, such as header or footer texts.
Note: While WPTools can manage important CSS attributes, it does not support all possible attributes. Additionally, it simplifies documents for compatibility with RTF format. Only in our "WPT" format and in RTF can all properties be saved.
