public class Paragraph
extends Element
implements ParagraphProperties

The Paragraph class represents a line in a Text and is a set of TextPart elements and FieldPart elements. I.e. a Paragraph that consists of a text formatted with blue color, a field, a text formatted with red color and a text formatted with blue color, has to be split into four parts; three TextPart elements and one FieldPart element. The last part of a Paragraph is terminated with a newline. After a FieldPart element, a TextPart element that contains a newline is required.

This class is part of the RDC.
