The root of a composable FlowElement tree is always a TextFlow object. Leaf elements of the tree are always subclasses of the FlowLeafElement class. All leaves arranged in a composable TextFlow have a ParagraphElement ancestor.
You cannot create a FlowElement object directly. Invoking new FlowElement()
throws an error
exception.

property. For all languages except Japanese and Chinese, FormatValue.AUTO
becomes JustificationRule.SPACE
, which adds extra space to the space characters. For Japanese and Chinese, FormatValue.AUTO

. In part, justification changes the spacing of punctuation. In Roman text the comma and Japanese periods take a full character's width but in East Asian text only half of a character's width. Also, in the East Asian text the spacing between sequential punctuation marks becomes tighter, obeying traditional East Asian typographic conventions. Note, too, in the example below the leading that is applied to the second line of the paragraphs. In the East Asian version, the last two lines push left.
