20.4.2.12 posOffset (Absolute Position Offset)

This element specifies an absolute measurement for the positioning of a floating DrawingML object within a WordprocessingML document. This measurement shall be calculated relative to the top left edge of the positioning base specified by the parent element's relativeFrom attribute.

[Example: Consider a DrawingML picture which must be displayed one inch from the top of the page, and one-half of an inch from the left edge of the page. This object would be specified as follows:

<wp:anchor … >
<wp:positionH relativeFrom="page">
<wp:posOffset>914400</wp:posOffset>
</wp:positionH>
<wp:positionV relativeFrom="page">
<wp:posOffset>457200</wp:posOffset>
</wp:positionV>
</wp:anchor>

The posOffset element specifies the absolute positioning of the object relative to the top-left edge of the page in EMUs. end example]

The possible values for this element are defined by the ST_PositionOffset simple type (§20.4.3.3).
