NEWLINE="value"

When using an RTF element to place a segment of formatted text in a document, IDF's NEWLINE attribute specifies how 'line ends' should be interpreted.

The value can be one of:

BREAK

'hard' break:  starts a new line for each line of input.

IGNORE

ignores line endings (the default).

SPACE

treats 'end of line' as a space character.

Some text editors require a 'hard break' to be entered when a new line is required. Others wrap text automatically, breaking the line at any convenient space character. If a segment is in true 'rich text' format, these issues do not arise, hence the default NEWLINE value is IGNORE.
