ADF node: paragraph

Node

Description

The paragraph node is a container for a block of formatted text delineated by a carriage return. It’s the equivalent of the HTML <p> tag.

Implementation Note: In the Java library, most nodes that are frequently used with simple paragraph and text nodes also provide methods that accept String values for convenience. Where these are available, they implicitly wrap the strings in text and paragraph nodes as required.

Example

Java

1
2
p("Hello world")
