My proposal for issue OFFICE-3854 is attached to my e-mail of 
12.03.2018. The proposal is complete besides the fact, that it refers to 
the terminology document in two places as "The mentioned areas are 
illustrated in NN." Do you think, that the text is exact enough without 
the illustrations and do we agree on the term "content-area"? We have 
not yet discussed my proposal.

I think, that we do not get the complete illustration-document discussed 
in time. There are not only terms to be discussed, but there are 
problems in regard of width and height. For example, does svg:width of a 
draw:frame include border and padding, which are defined in the frame 
style? Or does svg:width of a frame gives the width of the content-area, 
which e.g might be filled by an image?
And the behavior of margin, border, padding and shadow of characters 
(=OFFICE-3873) is unsolved. There the problem is, that CSS (used in HTML 
and EPUB) is different from the behavior of Word and therefore a simple 
reference to CSS is not usable, but we need an own specification and 
illustration.

Kind regards
Regina
