------- Additional comments from [email protected] Mon Jan 11 21:08:12 +0000 2010 ------- One issue with this feature is that it requires a change in the ODF spec. I've been researching on various specifications available from the W3C - mostly on XSL-FO (which we heavily reference) and CSS Text up to level 3. So far, CSS Text Level 3 is the only specification that deals with various methods of text justifications comprehensively. With that said, here is the change I'm proposing. For horizontal justification, we use an additional attribute to specify the justification method (that we call 'text-justify'). The values for this attribute will be taken from the attribute of the same name in the CSS Text Level 3 working draft, including the value 'distribute'. For the traditional, western-style justification this attribute can be omitted, or set to 'auto'. For a vertical justification, we introduce an additional value 'justify' to the existing style:vertical-align attribute, and introduce an additional attribute style:vertical-justify to specify the justification method. The style:vertical-justify attribute can take the same set of values that the text-justify can take. The namespace for the text-justify attribute has yet to be determined: we could either use 'style' or something new such as 'css', 'csstext3' to indicate its reference origin. I'm using 'csstext3' in my development build, but it's easy to change it later if it has to be changed.
