utxt
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of the tagged data in bytes (that is, everything in the file except the 4-byte word and the caret position), followed by a block of data of variable length that represents the contents of the file. |
An MLTE file begins with this tag. If the file contains only text, this data is simply the Unicode text characters. If the file contains text and embedded data, the text data consists of the text characters and a character for each embedded object that represents the data type of that object. The data that describes the content of the object appears after the appropriate tag later in the file. See the
pict
,
aiff
, and
moov
tags. |
runs
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the total number of bytes of the style run data that follows. |
This tag normally appears after the
utxt
data and before individual style run tags and data. |
UCTx
|
Horizontal scaling factor (2 bytes), vertical scaling factor (2 bytes), font name (a Pascal string--byte length followed by characters), font size, (2 bytes), font face (4 bytes), and text color (an RGB color). |
This block of data defines QuickDraw style attribute information. |
UCga
|
Size (the number of bytes of attribute data that follows) followed by attribute data. Each attribute is specified as a tag (4 bytes), size (4 bytes), and a value. |
UCga
stands for Universal Global Attribute. This block of data defines ATSUI style information. It should always be used unless ATSUI is not available. |
|
pict |
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of the
pict
data, followed by two 16-bit words to represent scaling, followed by a block of data of variable length that represents the PICT object. |
MLTE does not alter the graphics data, nor does it know anything about PICT format. |
aiff
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of the
aiff
data, followed by two 16-bit words to represent scaling, followed by a block of data of variable length that represents the sound object. |
MLTE does not alter the sound data, nor does it know anything about AIFF. |
moov
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of the
moov
data, followed by two 16-bit words to represent scaling, followed by a block of data of variable length that represents the movie object. |
MLTE does not alter the movie data, nor does it know anything about
'MooV'
format. |
rlrs
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of all ruler data followed by the ruler data. The ruler data is as follows: |
|
|
|
Ruler class ID (4 bytes) |
In version 1 this value is 'brlr' |
|
A 4-byte word that specifies the length of the class data. |
|
|
Justification type (1-byte
char
) |
Possible values are: 1 (left), 2 (right), 4 (center), 8 (full justification), and 16 (full justification for all lines, including the last line) |
Line width (4-byte
long
) |
Specifies the width of the line in pixels. |
Justification, ATSUI (4-byte
fract
) |
The degree of justification in a line. See also,
kATSULineJustificationFactor
in the ATSUI reference documentation. |
Line flush, ATSUI (4-byte
fract
) |
Specifies the value that represents how the text is aligned in relation to one or both margins. See also
kATSULineFlushFactorTag
in the ATSUI reference documentation. |
Default tab value (2-byte
short
) |
Width of the default tab in pixels. |
|
Cursor/selection data does not have a tag |
Starting offset (4-byte
long
), trailing edge (2 bytes, the last byte of which indicates
true
or
false
), ending offset (4-byte
long
), trailing edge (2 bytes, the last byte of which indicates
true
or
false
) |
Information about the starting and ending points of the selection in the document.
The starting and ending offsets are actual character offsets. If the starting and ending offsets are the same value, they indicates cursor position.
Trailing edge data is used for caret handling;
true
indicates that the caret is closer to the trailing edge of the character at "offset -1." |
