NewLineType Property (Document)

The newline character(s) can be represented as either a line break or a carriage return. A document consumer may interpret a line break or carriage return differently depending on the circumstances under which it is used. For example, paragraph justification can behave differently in MS Word depending on whether a line break is contained within the paragraph. A carriage return is recognized in a standard paragraph as a line-breaking character, but is not recognized when the paragraph is contained within a table cell.

This property can be used to specify the method used to represent a newline for all text runs within the document. The AddNewLine method overload which takes a NewLineType parameter can be used to generate a newline character independently of the value of this property. The TextRun class also exposes a NewLineType property, so that the newline character can be specified on a per-TextRun basis.
