When converting from XHTML to docx, the vertical-align style property is ignored.

I have a

Code: Select all: <span style="vertical-align: super">text</span>

which isn't rendered as a superscript.

Maybe is not supported but I'm wondering, since I also need to generate some additional stuff into the docx based on the XHTML input, is there any sort of hook or filter that can be used to sneak into the conversion process and add additional elements to the docx while parsing the XHTML document?

Looking at the code, org.docx4j.model.properties.run.VerticalAlignment, the reason it doesn't work is that a value of "top" is supported, but not "super". Assuming super is a legal value in CSS land (I haven't checked), then the required change is:

No, there isn't at the moment. We have that sort of tag handler thing for output, and I can see the use for XHTML Import, especially for custom (ie foreign) element names.

what's that 'tag handler thing'?

For what its worth, its the ModelConverter interface, used for outputting tables and various other things in PDF, HTML. But it can't just be re-used for XHTML import.
