## Class PresentationTextData

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.fop.afp.modca.AbstractAFPObject
  - - org.apache.fop.afp.modca.PresentationTextData

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    PtocaConstants, Streamable

      public class PresentationTextData
      extends AbstractAFPObject
      implements PtocaConstants

  Presentation text data contains the graphic characters and the control sequences necessary to position the characters within the object space. The data consists of: - graphic characters to be presented - control sequences that position them - modal control sequences that adjust the positions by small amounts - other functions causing text to be presented with differences in appearance.

  The graphic characters are expected to conform to a coded font representation so that they can be translated from the code point in the object data to the character in the coded font. The units of measure for linear displacements are derived from the PresentationTextDescriptor or from the hierarchical defaults.

  In addition to graphic character code points, Presentation Text data can contain embedded control sequences. These are strings of two or more bytes which signal an alternate mode of processing for the content of the current Presentation Text data.

  The content for this object can be created using `PtocaBuilder`.
