2.1.52 Part 1 Section 17.3.1.21, overflowPunct (Allow Punctuation to Extend Past Text Extents)

  • Article

a.   The standard states that this setting applies to punctuation characters, but does not specify which characters are punctuation characters.

Word only applies this setting to the following characters:

If the parent run is Chinese (Simplified):

  • !%),.:;>?]}¢°·ˇ’”‰′″℃∶、。〃〉》」』】〕〗〞﹚﹜﹞！＂％＇），．：；？］｝￠

If the parent run is Chinese (Traditional):

  • !),.:;?]}’”′、。〉》」』】〕〞﹚﹜﹞！），．：；？］｝

If the parent run is Japanese:

  • ,.’”、。」』】），．］｝｡､

If the parent run is Korean:

  • !%),.:;?]}¢°’”′″℃〉》」』】〕！％），．：；？］｝￠

b.   The standard does not state how a conflict between the overflowPunct element and the kinsoku element should be resolved when both are applied to a single paragraph.

Word ignores the kinsoku element when this element is present and the two settings conflict.
