Class ParagraphStyle

    Paragraph Style

    The styles of text that apply to entire paragraphs.

    Read methods in this class return null if the corresponding Text Range spans multiple paragraphs, and those paragraphs have different values for the read method being called. To avoid this, query for paragraph styles using the Text Range returned by the Paragraph.getRange() method.

    If you use methods that edit how text fits within a shape, any autofit settings applied to the paragraph styles are deactivated.
