oxml-core 0.12.1

Format-neutral OOXML units, XML helpers, and document properties
Documentation

oxml-core

Share exact OOXML units, XML helpers, and package-independent document property models.

Capabilities

  • Lengths in twips, EMUs, half-points, centipoints, and physical units.
  • Angles and thousandths-of-a-percent values used by OOXML schemas.
  • Core, application, and custom property parsing and writing.
  • XML 1.0 lexical validation, namespace handling, decoding, and raw capture.

Use it when

Use this crate when implementing OOXML infrastructure shared by WordprocessingML and PresentationML. End-user document applications should prefer rdocx or rpptx.

Relationship

Higher-level oxml-*, rdocx-*, and rpptx-* crates build on these primitives without introducing a format-specific dependency here. These are focused OOXML building blocks, not a general DOM or schema implementation. Unit conversions follow the repository's exact truncation rules.

Example

use oxml_core::Length;

let page_width = Length::inches(8.5);
assert_eq!(page_width.to_twips(), 12_240);

Add oxml-core = "0.12.1" to your dependencies. See the API documentation for XML and property types.
