    Hi Manu,

    Entering shift-Enter in Word, i.e. inserting a soft break inserts the w:br element, which is a child of the w:r element.

    There are some great tools that will help you with answering these types of questions. See the ‘Intro to Open XML’ screen-cast series, and look at the tools videos.

    Cheers, Eric

    Thanks Eric.

    But I have document which doesn’t have a line break element in document.xml. but document has many lines in it.

    And is there a way to extract the text all the sections separately using openxml?

    Hi Manu,

    I’d have to see the document to understand what you are seeing.

    One thing that you can’t get from the XML is the layout of the text – you can’t see how Word wraps lines and where the wrapping breaks are. This information is calculated by a layout engine inside of Word.

    Cheers, Eric
