character_orientation_absolute            N       ndt_plane_angle

                                          An angle of rotation applied to characters in
                                          a text string. The angle is measured counter-clockwise
                                          from the horizontal axis of the rendering. 

character_orientation_relative            N       ndt_plane_angle

                                          The angle of rotation applied to characters in
                                          a text string. Angle is measured in a counter-clockwise
                                          direction from the tangent of the text trend line
                                          at the character rendering position. 

character_spacing                         N       ndt_length

                                          Distance used to separate characters in a character
                                          string. Distance has slightly different semantics
                                          for fixed width vs. proportional fonts.

                                          Specification of the method used to assign character
                                          placement along the text line. Examples include
                                          left, right, centered. 

ref_justification_vertical                        ref_justification_vertical

                                          Normal indicates orthogonal axes;  italic indicates
                                          a small rotation in the clockwise direction.
